Now, list down the factors of 1048
:1,2,4,8,131,262,524,1048
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2351,1048 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2351,1048 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 596,8855
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5277580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5277580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2351/596,1048/8855 is 1/5277580
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 596,8855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,8855) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,8855) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(596,8855) = ( 596 × 8855 ) / 1
LCM(596,8855) = 5277580 / 1
LCM(596,8855) = 5277580
