1,2,4,313,626,1252
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 882,1252 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 882,1252 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,740
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/42180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 882/57,1252/740 is 2/42180
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 57,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,740) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(57,740) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(57,740) = ( 57 × 740 ) / 1
LCM(57,740) = 42180 / 1
LCM(57,740) = 42180
