Lets's calculate LCM of 32,195

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6240

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/6240

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 252/32,144/195 is 36/6240

Least Common Multiple of 32,195 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 32,195 with GCF Formula

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 32,195 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(32,195) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(32,195) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(32,195) = ( 32 × 195 ) / 1

LCM(32,195) = 6240 / 1

LCM(32,195) = 6240
