Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 206,182 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 206,182 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,8976
2 | 78, 8976 |
3 | 39, 4488 |
13, 1496 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 13 x 1496 = 116688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/116688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 206/78,182/8976 is 2/116688
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 78,8976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,8976) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,8976) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(78,8976) = ( 78 × 8976 ) / 6
LCM(78,8976) = 700128 / 6
LCM(78,8976) = 116688
