1,2,4,23,46,92,529,1058,2116
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8548,2116 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8548,2116 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,515
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/33990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8548/66,2116/515 is 4/33990
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 66,515 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,515) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,515) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(66,515) = ( 66 × 515 ) / 1
LCM(66,515) = 33990 / 1
LCM(66,515) = 33990
