1,19,251,4769
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 742,4769 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 742,4769 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 753,480
3 | 753, 480 |
251, 160 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 251 x 160 = 120480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/120480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 742/753,4769/480 is 1/120480
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 753,480 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(753,480) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(753,480) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(753,480) = ( 753 × 480 ) / 3
LCM(753,480) = 361440 / 3
LCM(753,480) = 120480
