∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 778
List of positive integer factors of 778 that divides 778 without a remainder.
1,2,389,778
Factors of 5062
List of positive integer factors of 5062 that divides 5062 without a remainder.
1,2,2531,5062
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 778,5062 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 778,5062 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 177,824
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/145848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 778/177,5062/824 is 2/145848
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 177,824 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(177,824) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(177,824) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(177,824) = ( 177 × 824 ) / 1
LCM(177,824) = 145848 / 1
LCM(177,824) = 145848
