1,2,4,5,8,10,11,16,20,22,32,40,44,55,64,80,88,110,160,176,220,320,352,440,704,880,1760,3520
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5440,3520 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5440,3520 is 320.
Lets's calculate LCM of 547,504
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 275688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 320/275688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5440/547,3520/504 is 320/275688
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 547,504 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(547,504) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(547,504) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(547,504) = ( 547 × 504 ) / 1
LCM(547,504) = 275688 / 1
LCM(547,504) = 275688
