:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,31,32,40,62,80,124,155,160,248,310,496,620,992,1240,2480,4960
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1418,4960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1418,4960 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 976,3603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3516528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3516528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1418/976,4960/3603 is 2/3516528
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 976,3603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(976,3603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(976,3603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(976,3603) = ( 976 × 3603 ) / 1
LCM(976,3603) = 3516528 / 1
LCM(976,3603) = 3516528
