:1,2,4,8,13,16,26,32,52,104,208,416
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 640,416 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 640,416 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,582
2 | 70, 582 |
35, 291 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 35 x 291 = 20370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/20370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 640/70,416/582 is 32/20370
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 70,582 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,582) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,582) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(70,582) = ( 70 × 582 ) / 2
LCM(70,582) = 40740 / 2
LCM(70,582) = 20370
