1,7369
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5270,7369 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5270,7369 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 726,996
2 | 726, 996 |
3 | 363, 498 |
121, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 121 x 166 = 120516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/120516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5270/726,7369/996 is 1/120516
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 726,996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,996) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,996) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(726,996) = ( 726 × 996 ) / 6
LCM(726,996) = 723096 / 6
LCM(726,996) = 120516
