1,2,4,8,16,73,146,292,584,1168
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7967,1168 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7967,1168 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 397,191
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75827
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/75827
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7967/397,1168/191 is 1/75827
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 397,191 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,191) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,191) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,191) = ( 397 × 191 ) / 1
LCM(397,191) = 75827 / 1
LCM(397,191) = 75827
