1,2,4,7,14,28,47,94,188,329,658,1316
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2729,1316 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2729,1316 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 162,204
2 | 162, 204 |
3 | 81, 102 |
27, 34 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 27 x 34 = 5508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2729/162,1316/204 is 1/5508
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 162,204 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,204) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,204) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(162,204) = ( 162 × 204 ) / 6
LCM(162,204) = 33048 / 6
LCM(162,204) = 5508
