1,2,4,8,1021,2042,4084,8168
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2588,8168 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2588,8168 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 30,583
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17490
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/17490
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2588/30,8168/583 is 4/17490
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 30,583 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,583) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(30,583) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(30,583) = ( 30 × 583 ) / 1
LCM(30,583) = 17490 / 1
LCM(30,583) = 17490
