:1,3,7,21,41,123,287,861
Now, list down the factors of 358
:1,2,179,358
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 861,358 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 861,358 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 727,595
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 432565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/432565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 861/727,358/595 is 1/432565
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 727,595 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,595) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,595) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,595) = ( 727 × 595 ) / 1
LCM(727,595) = 432565 / 1
LCM(727,595) = 432565
