Now, list down the factors of 950
:1,2,5,10,19,25,38,50,95,190,475,950
Now, list down the factors of 733
:1,733
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 950,733 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 950,733 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 751,229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 171979
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/171979
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 950/751,733/229 is 1/171979
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 751,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(751,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(751,229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(751,229) = ( 751 × 229 ) / 1
LCM(751,229) = 171979 / 1
LCM(751,229) = 171979
