1,5,7,35,151,755,1057,5285
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2552,5285 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2552,5285 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,402
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2552/73,5285/402 is 1/29346
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 73,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,402) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,402) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,402) = ( 73 × 402 ) / 1
LCM(73,402) = 29346 / 1
LCM(73,402) = 29346
