Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 541,4970 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 541,4970 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 726,979
11 | 726, 979 |
66, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 66 x 89 = 64614
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/64614
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 541/726,4970/979 is 1/64614
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 726,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,979) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,979) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(726,979) = ( 726 × 979 ) / 11
LCM(726,979) = 710754 / 11
LCM(726,979) = 64614
