1,2549
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 474,2549 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 474,2549 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 794,758
2 | 794, 758 |
397, 379 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 397 x 379 = 300926
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/300926
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 474/794,2549/758 is 1/300926
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 794,758 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(794,758) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(794,758) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(794,758) = ( 794 × 758 ) / 2
LCM(794,758) = 601852 / 2
LCM(794,758) = 300926
