:1,3271
Now, list down the factors of 2976
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,31,32,48,62,93,96,124,186,248,372,496,744,992,1488,2976
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3271,2976 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3271,2976 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 415,851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 353165
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/353165
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3271/415,2976/851 is 1/353165
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 415,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(415,851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(415,851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(415,851) = ( 415 × 851 ) / 1
LCM(415,851) = 353165 / 1
LCM(415,851) = 353165
