Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 277,7797 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 277,7797 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 734,1566
2 | 734, 1566 |
367, 783 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 367 x 783 = 574722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/574722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 277/734,7797/1566 is 1/574722
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 734,1566 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(734,1566) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(734,1566) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(734,1566) = ( 734 × 1566 ) / 2
LCM(734,1566) = 1149444 / 2
LCM(734,1566) = 574722
