Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 722,6517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 722,6517 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 791,584
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 461944
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/461944
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 722/791,6517/584 is 19/461944
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 791,584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,584) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,584) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(791,584) = ( 791 × 584 ) / 1
LCM(791,584) = 461944 / 1
LCM(791,584) = 461944
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
