We found the factors 733,6237 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 733,6237 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 398,346
2 | 398, 346 |
199, 173 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 199 x 173 = 68854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/68854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 733/398,6237/346 is 1/68854
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 398,346 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(398,346) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(398,346) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(398,346) = ( 398 × 346 ) / 2
LCM(398,346) = 137708 / 2
LCM(398,346) = 68854
