1,3779
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5372,3779 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5372,3779 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 528,668
2 | 528, 668 |
2 | 264, 334 |
132, 167 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 132 x 167 = 88176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/88176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5372/528,3779/668 is 1/88176
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 528,668 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(528,668) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(528,668) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(528,668) = ( 528 × 668 ) / 4
LCM(528,668) = 352704 / 4
LCM(528,668) = 88176
