:1,2,4,5,8,10,13,16,20,26,32,40,52,64,65,80,104,130,160,208,260,320,416,520,832,1040,2080,4160
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2501,4160 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2501,4160 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,3236
2 | 334, 3236 |
167, 1618 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 167 x 1618 = 540412
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/540412
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2501/334,4160/3236 is 1/540412
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 334,3236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,3236) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,3236) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(334,3236) = ( 334 × 3236 ) / 2
LCM(334,3236) = 1080824 / 2
LCM(334,3236) = 540412
