We found the factors 5338,1100 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5338,1100 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 772,709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 547348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/547348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5338/772,1100/709 is 2/547348
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 772,709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(772,709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(772,709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(772,709) = ( 772 × 709 ) / 1
LCM(772,709) = 547348 / 1
LCM(772,709) = 547348
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
