:1,2,5,10,37,74,185,370
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 666,370 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 666,370 is 74.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,956
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 74/27724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 666/29,370/956 is 74/27724
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 29,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,956) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,956) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,956) = ( 29 × 956 ) / 1
LCM(29,956) = 27724 / 1
LCM(29,956) = 27724
