1,11,859,9449
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1255,9449 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1255,9449 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 664,730
2 | 664, 730 |
332, 365 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 332 x 365 = 242360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/242360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1255/664,9449/730 is 1/242360
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 664,730 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(664,730) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(664,730) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(664,730) = ( 664 × 730 ) / 2
LCM(664,730) = 484720 / 2
LCM(664,730) = 242360
