Greatest Common Factor

We found the factors 33,42 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 33,42 is 3.

Lets's calculate LCM of 296,992

2 296, 992
2 148, 496
2 74, 248
37, 124

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 37 x 124 = 36704

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/36704

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/296,42/992 is 3/36704

Least Common Multiple of 296,992 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 296,992 with GCF Formula

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 296,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(296,992) = 8

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(296,992) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8

LCM(296,992) = ( 296 × 992 ) / 8

LCM(296,992) = 293632 / 8

LCM(296,992) = 36704
