:1,2,4,7,8,14,28,53,56,106,212,371,424,742,1484,2968
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2066,2968 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2066,2968 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 571,218
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 124478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/124478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2066/571,2968/218 is 2/124478
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 571,218 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(571,218) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(571,218) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(571,218) = ( 571 × 218 ) / 1
LCM(571,218) = 124478 / 1
LCM(571,218) = 124478
