1,23,397,9131
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 227,9131 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 227,9131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 742,768
2 | 742, 768 |
371, 384 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 371 x 384 = 284928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/284928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 227/742,9131/768 is 1/284928
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 742,768 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(742,768) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(742,768) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(742,768) = ( 742 × 768 ) / 2
LCM(742,768) = 569856 / 2
LCM(742,768) = 284928
