:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48,193,386,579,772,1158,1544,2316,3088,4632,9264
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9985,9264 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9985,9264 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 278,677
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 188206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/188206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9985/278,9264/677 is 1/188206
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 278,677 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(278,677) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(278,677) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(278,677) = ( 278 × 677 ) / 1
LCM(278,677) = 188206 / 1
LCM(278,677) = 188206
