:1,2,5,10,23,41,46,82,115,205,230,410,943,1886,4715,9430
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 738,9430 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 738,9430 is 82.
Lets's calculate LCM of 933,160
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 149280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 82/149280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 738/933,9430/160 is 82/149280
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 933,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(933,160) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(933,160) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(933,160) = ( 933 × 160 ) / 1
LCM(933,160) = 149280 / 1
LCM(933,160) = 149280
