∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 = 18
Now, list down the factors of 612
:1,2,3,4,6,9,12,17,18,34,36,51,68,102,153,204,306,612
Now, list down the factors of 882
:1,2,3,6,7,9,14,18,21,42,49,63,98,126,147,294,441,882
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 612,882 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 612,882 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,377
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15457
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/15457
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 612/41,882/377 is 18/15457
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 41,377 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,377) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,377) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,377) = ( 41 × 377 ) / 1
LCM(41,377) = 15457 / 1
LCM(41,377) = 15457
