Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1353,4588 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1353,4588 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,168
3 | 201, 168 |
67, 56 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 67 x 56 = 11256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1353/201,4588/168 is 1/11256
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 201,168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,168) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,168) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(201,168) = ( 201 × 168 ) / 3
LCM(201,168) = 33768 / 3
LCM(201,168) = 11256
