Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1745,2931 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1745,2931 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 738,6494
2 | 738, 6494 |
369, 3247 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 369 x 3247 = 2396286
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2396286
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1745/738,2931/6494 is 1/2396286
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 738,6494 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(738,6494) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(738,6494) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(738,6494) = ( 738 × 6494 ) / 2
LCM(738,6494) = 4792572 / 2
LCM(738,6494) = 2396286
