So the greatest common factor 728,5046 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 912,539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 491568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/491568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 728/912,5046/539 is 2/491568
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 912,539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(912,539) = ( 912 × 539 ) / 1
LCM(912,539) = 491568 / 1
LCM(912,539) = 491568
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
