1,2,4,8,16,67,134,268,536,1072
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6304,1072 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6304,1072 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 817,485
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 396245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/396245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6304/817,1072/485 is 16/396245
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 817,485 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(817,485) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(817,485) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(817,485) = ( 817 × 485 ) / 1
LCM(817,485) = 396245 / 1
LCM(817,485) = 396245
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
