:1,2,11,22,83,166,913,1826
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1521,1826 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1521,1826 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 307,912
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/279984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1521/307,1826/912 is 1/279984
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 307,912 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(307,912) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(307,912) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(307,912) = ( 307 × 912 ) / 1
LCM(307,912) = 279984 / 1
LCM(307,912) = 279984
