1,2,17,34,227,454,3859,7718
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 896,7718 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 896,7718 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,252
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 896/41,7718/252 is 2/10332
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 41,252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,252) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,252) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,252) = ( 41 × 252 ) / 1
LCM(41,252) = 10332 / 1
LCM(41,252) = 10332
