1,2,5,10,613,1226,3065,6130
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 178,6130 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 178,6130 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 576,233
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 134208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/134208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 178/576,6130/233 is 2/134208
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 576,233 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(576,233) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(576,233) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(576,233) = ( 576 × 233 ) / 1
LCM(576,233) = 134208 / 1
LCM(576,233) = 134208
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
