Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 731,680 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 731,680 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1259,6870
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8649330
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/8649330
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 731/1259,680/6870 is 17/8649330
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 1259,6870 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1259,6870) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1259,6870) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1259,6870) = ( 1259 × 6870 ) / 1
LCM(1259,6870) = 8649330 / 1
LCM(1259,6870) = 8649330
