1,2,4,89,178,356
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 960,356 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 960,356 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 829,256
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 212224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/212224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 960/829,356/256 is 4/212224
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 829,256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(829,256) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(829,256) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(829,256) = ( 829 × 256 ) / 1
LCM(829,256) = 212224 / 1
LCM(829,256) = 212224
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
