:1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88,101,202,404,808,1111,2222,4444,8888
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3618,8888 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3618,8888 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 762,151
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 115062
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/115062
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3618/762,8888/151 is 2/115062
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 762,151 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(762,151) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(762,151) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(762,151) = ( 762 × 151 ) / 1
LCM(762,151) = 115062 / 1
LCM(762,151) = 115062
