1,2,3,4,6,12,47,94,141,188,282,564
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 374,564 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 374,564 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 777,317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 246309
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/246309
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 374/777,564/317 is 2/246309
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 777,317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(777,317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(777,317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(777,317) = ( 777 × 317 ) / 1
LCM(777,317) = 246309 / 1
LCM(777,317) = 246309
