Now, list down the factors of 2972
:1,2,4,743,1486,2972
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 319,2972 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 319,2972 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 976,539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 526064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/526064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 319/976,2972/539 is 1/526064
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 976,539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(976,539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(976,539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(976,539) = ( 976 × 539 ) / 1
LCM(976,539) = 526064 / 1
LCM(976,539) = 526064
