1,2,3,6,577,1154,1731,3462
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5130,3462 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5130,3462 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,152
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4408
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/4408
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5130/29,3462/152 is 6/4408
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 29,152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,152) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,152) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,152) = ( 29 × 152 ) / 1
LCM(29,152) = 4408 / 1
LCM(29,152) = 4408
