Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 566,5472 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 566,5472 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 741,979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 725439
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/725439
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 566/741,5472/979 is 2/725439
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 741,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(741,979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(741,979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(741,979) = ( 741 × 979 ) / 1
LCM(741,979) = 725439 / 1
LCM(741,979) = 725439
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
