:1,2,3,4,6,8,9,11,12,18,22,24,27,33,36,44,54,66,72,81,88,99,108,132,162,198,216,264,297,324,396,594,648,792,891,1188,1782,2376,3564,7128
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8976,7128 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8976,7128 is 264.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,673
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 51821
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 264/51821
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8976/77,7128/673 is 264/51821
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 77,673 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,673) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,673) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,673) = ( 77 × 673 ) / 1
LCM(77,673) = 51821 / 1
LCM(77,673) = 51821
