1,8419
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 729,8419 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 729,8419 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 296,664
2 | 296, 664 |
2 | 148, 332 |
2 | 74, 166 |
37, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 37 x 83 = 24568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 729/296,8419/664 is 1/24568
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 296,664 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(296,664) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(296,664) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(296,664) = ( 296 × 664 ) / 8
LCM(296,664) = 196544 / 8
LCM(296,664) = 24568
