:1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,29,36,58,72,87,116,174,232,261,348,522,696,1044,2088
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 801,2088 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 801,2088 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 489,472
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 230808
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/230808
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 801/489,2088/472 is 9/230808
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 489,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,472) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,472) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(489,472) = ( 489 × 472 ) / 1
LCM(489,472) = 230808 / 1
LCM(489,472) = 230808
