Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1792,7696 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1792,7696 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4610
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/4610
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1792/10,7696/461 is 16/4610
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 10,461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(10,461) = ( 10 × 461 ) / 1
LCM(10,461) = 4610 / 1
LCM(10,461) = 4610
