Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 797,938 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 797,938 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 30,721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 797/30,938/721 is 1/21630
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 30,721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(30,721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(30,721) = ( 30 × 721 ) / 1
LCM(30,721) = 21630 / 1
LCM(30,721) = 21630
