∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 818
:1,2,409,818
Now, list down the factors of 542
:1,2,271,542
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 818,542 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 818,542 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,8003
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 616231
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/616231
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 818/77,542/8003 is 2/616231
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 77,8003 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,8003) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,8003) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,8003) = ( 77 × 8003 ) / 1
LCM(77,8003) = 616231 / 1
LCM(77,8003) = 616231
