Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7376,3032 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7376,3032 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 527,368
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 193936
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/193936
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7376/527,3032/368 is 8/193936
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 527,368 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(527,368) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(527,368) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(527,368) = ( 527 × 368 ) / 1
LCM(527,368) = 193936 / 1
LCM(527,368) = 193936
