Now, list down the factors of 6568
:1,2,4,8,821,1642,3284,6568
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 761,6568 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 761,6568 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 972,971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 943812
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/943812
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 761/972,6568/971 is 1/943812
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 972,971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(972,971) = ( 972 × 971 ) / 1
LCM(972,971) = 943812 / 1
LCM(972,971) = 943812
