Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 792,348 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 792,348 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 766,537
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 411342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/411342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 792/766,348/537 is 12/411342
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 766,537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(766,537) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(766,537) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(766,537) = ( 766 × 537 ) / 1
LCM(766,537) = 411342 / 1
LCM(766,537) = 411342
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
