∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8
Now, list down the factors of 2000
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,40,50,80,100,125,200,250,400,500,1000,2000
Now, list down the factors of 8872
:1,2,4,8,1109,2218,4436,8872
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2000,8872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2000,8872 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 405,2707
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1096335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1096335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2000/405,8872/2707 is 8/1096335
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 405,2707 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(405,2707) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(405,2707) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(405,2707) = ( 405 × 2707 ) / 1
LCM(405,2707) = 1096335 / 1
LCM(405,2707) = 1096335
