Now, list down the factors of 791
:1,7,113,791
Now, list down the factors of 754
:1,2,13,26,29,58,377,754
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 791,754 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 791,754 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,8437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 303732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/303732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 791/36,754/8437 is 1/303732
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 36,8437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,8437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,8437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(36,8437) = ( 36 × 8437 ) / 1
LCM(36,8437) = 303732 / 1
LCM(36,8437) = 303732
