Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 765,629 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 765,629 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,901
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/32436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 765/36,629/901 is 17/32436
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 36,901 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,901) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,901) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(36,901) = ( 36 × 901 ) / 1
LCM(36,901) = 32436 / 1
LCM(36,901) = 32436
