:1,2,7,13,14,26,47,91,94,182,329,611,658,1222,4277,8554
Now, list down the factors of 2976
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,31,32,48,62,93,96,124,186,248,372,496,744,992,1488,2976
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8554,2976 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8554,2976 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 783,850
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 665550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/665550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8554/783,2976/850 is 2/665550
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 783,850 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(783,850) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(783,850) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(783,850) = ( 783 × 850 ) / 1
LCM(783,850) = 665550 / 1
LCM(783,850) = 665550
