1,5749
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 725,5749 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 725,5749 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 951,744
3 | 951, 744 |
317, 248 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 317 x 248 = 235848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/235848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 725/951,5749/744 is 1/235848
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 951,744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(951,744) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(951,744) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(951,744) = ( 951 × 744 ) / 3
LCM(951,744) = 707544 / 3
LCM(951,744) = 235848
