1,13,23,299,529,6877
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2976,6877 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2976,6877 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 112,435
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 48720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/48720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2976/112,6877/435 is 1/48720
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 112,435 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(112,435) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(112,435) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(112,435) = ( 112 × 435 ) / 1
LCM(112,435) = 48720 / 1
LCM(112,435) = 48720
