So the greatest common factor 182,420 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,4188
2 | 16, 4188 |
2 | 8, 2094 |
4, 1047 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 4 x 1047 = 16752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/16752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 182/16,420/4188 is 14/16752
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 16,4188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,4188) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,4188) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(16,4188) = ( 16 × 4188 ) / 4
LCM(16,4188) = 67008 / 4
LCM(16,4188) = 16752
