:1,2,13,26,127,254,1651,3302
Now, list down the factors of 3036
:1,2,3,4,6,11,12,22,23,33,44,46,66,69,92,132,138,253,276,506,759,1012,1518,3036
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3302,3036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3302,3036 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 855,166
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 141930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/141930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3302/855,3036/166 is 2/141930
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 855,166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(855,166) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(855,166) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(855,166) = ( 855 × 166 ) / 1
LCM(855,166) = 141930 / 1
LCM(855,166) = 141930
