1,2,7,11,14,22,49,77,98,154,539,1078
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 314,1078 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 314,1078 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 873,334
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 291582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/291582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 314/873,1078/334 is 2/291582
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 873,334 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,334) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,334) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,334) = ( 873 × 334 ) / 1
LCM(873,334) = 291582 / 1
LCM(873,334) = 291582
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
