So the greatest common factor 5965,4743 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 578,728
2 | 578, 728 |
289, 364 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 289 x 364 = 210392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/210392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5965/578,4743/728 is 1/210392
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 578,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,728) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,728) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(578,728) = ( 578 × 728 ) / 2
LCM(578,728) = 420784 / 2
LCM(578,728) = 210392
