:1,2,4,8,193,386,772,1544
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1391,1544 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1391,1544 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 181,638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 115478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/115478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1391/181,1544/638 is 1/115478
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 181,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(181,638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(181,638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(181,638) = ( 181 × 638 ) / 1
LCM(181,638) = 115478 / 1
LCM(181,638) = 115478
