1,2,4,8,839,1678,3356,6712
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 56,6712 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 56,6712 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 164,6855
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1124220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1124220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 56/164,6712/6855 is 8/1124220
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 164,6855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,6855) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(164,6855) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(164,6855) = ( 164 × 6855 ) / 1
LCM(164,6855) = 1124220 / 1
LCM(164,6855) = 1124220
