List of positive integer factors of 1168 that divides 1168 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,73,146,292,584,1168
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 477,1168 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 477,1168 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 596,676
2 | 596, 676 |
2 | 298, 338 |
149, 169 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 149 x 169 = 100724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/100724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 477/596,1168/676 is 1/100724
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 596,676 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,676) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,676) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(596,676) = ( 596 × 676 ) / 4
LCM(596,676) = 402896 / 4
LCM(596,676) = 100724
