1,2,4,8,16,101,202,404,808,1616
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8999,1616 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8999,1616 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,758
2 | 26, 758 |
13, 379 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 379 = 9854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8999/26,1616/758 is 1/9854
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 26,758 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,758) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,758) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(26,758) = ( 26 × 758 ) / 2
LCM(26,758) = 19708 / 2
LCM(26,758) = 9854
