1,2,4,8,16,37,74,148,296,592
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 538,592 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 538,592 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,8584
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 557960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/557960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 538/65,592/8584 is 2/557960
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 65,8584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,8584) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(65,8584) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(65,8584) = ( 65 × 8584 ) / 1
LCM(65,8584) = 557960 / 1
LCM(65,8584) = 557960
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
