1,2,4,8,16,19,38,76,152,304
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 318,304 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 318,304 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2355,4627
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10896585
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10896585
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 318/2355,304/4627 is 2/10896585
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 2355,4627 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2355,4627) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2355,4627) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2355,4627) = ( 2355 × 4627 ) / 1
LCM(2355,4627) = 10896585 / 1
LCM(2355,4627) = 10896585
