1,2,4,8,16,547,1094,2188,4376,8752
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 961,8752 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 961,8752 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 357,552
3 | 357, 552 |
119, 184 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 119 x 184 = 65688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/65688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 961/357,8752/552 is 1/65688
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 357,552 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,552) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,552) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(357,552) = ( 357 × 552 ) / 3
LCM(357,552) = 197064 / 3
LCM(357,552) = 65688
