Lets's calculate GCF of 77,2001
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 77
:1,7,11,77
Now, list down the factors of 2001
:1,3,23,29,69,87,667,2001
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 77,2001 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 77,2001 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 726,6874
2 | 726, 6874 |
363, 3437 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 363 x 3437 = 2495262
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2495262
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/726,2001/6874 is 1/2495262
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 726,6874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,6874) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,6874) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(726,6874) = ( 726 × 6874 ) / 2
LCM(726,6874) = 4990524 / 2
LCM(726,6874) = 2495262
