1,2,4,8,16,41,82,164,328,656
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 434,656 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 434,656 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,7269
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 494292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/494292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 434/68,656/7269 is 2/494292
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 68,7269 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,7269) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(68,7269) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(68,7269) = ( 68 × 7269 ) / 1
LCM(68,7269) = 494292 / 1
LCM(68,7269) = 494292
