Now, list down the factors of 2794
:1,2,11,22,127,254,1397,2794
Now, list down the factors of 3984
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48,83,166,249,332,498,664,996,1328,1992,3984
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2794,3984 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2794,3984 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 548,5282
2 | 548, 5282 |
274, 2641 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 274 x 2641 = 1447268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1447268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2794/548,3984/5282 is 2/1447268
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 548,5282 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(548,5282) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(548,5282) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(548,5282) = ( 548 × 5282 ) / 2
LCM(548,5282) = 2894536 / 2
LCM(548,5282) = 1447268
