:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,16,20,24,30,32,40,48,60,64,80,96,120,160,192,240,320,480,960
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 937,960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 937,960 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 423,722
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 305406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/305406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 937/423,960/722 is 1/305406
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 423,722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,722) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,722) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(423,722) = ( 423 × 722 ) / 1
LCM(423,722) = 305406 / 1
LCM(423,722) = 305406
