Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2537,2975 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2537,2975 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 749,265
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 198485
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/198485
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2537/749,2975/265 is 1/198485
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 749,265 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(749,265) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(749,265) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(749,265) = ( 749 × 265 ) / 1
LCM(749,265) = 198485 / 1
LCM(749,265) = 198485
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
