1,7333
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1952,7333 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1952,7333 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 728,230
2 | 728, 230 |
364, 115 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 364 x 115 = 83720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1952/728,7333/230 is 1/83720
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 728,230 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(728,230) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(728,230) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(728,230) = ( 728 × 230 ) / 2
LCM(728,230) = 167440 / 2
LCM(728,230) = 83720
