:1,2,5,10,43,86,215,430
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 516,430 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 516,430 is 86.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 64482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 86/64482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 516/66,430/977 is 86/64482
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 66,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(66,977) = ( 66 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(66,977) = 64482 / 1
LCM(66,977) = 64482
