Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 778,261 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 778,261 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 441,158
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 69678
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/69678
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 778/441,261/158 is 1/69678
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 441,158 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(441,158) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(441,158) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(441,158) = ( 441 × 158 ) / 1
LCM(441,158) = 69678 / 1
LCM(441,158) = 69678
