Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8928,7184 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8928,7184 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 352,593
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 208736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/208736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8928/352,7184/593 is 16/208736
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 352,593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(352,593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(352,593) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(352,593) = ( 352 × 593 ) / 1
LCM(352,593) = 208736 / 1
LCM(352,593) = 208736
