:1,2,4,7,8,14,16,28,32,41,56,82,112,164,224,287,328,574,656,1148,1312,2296,4592,9184
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2788,9184 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2788,9184 is 164.
Lets's calculate LCM of 363,116
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42108
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 164/42108
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2788/363,9184/116 is 164/42108
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 363,116 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(363,116) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(363,116) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(363,116) = ( 363 × 116 ) / 1
LCM(363,116) = 42108 / 1
LCM(363,116) = 42108
