So the greatest common factor 332,6704 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 158,330
2 | 158, 330 |
79, 165 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 79 x 165 = 26070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/26070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 332/158,6704/330 is 4/26070
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 158,330 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(158,330) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(158,330) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(158,330) = ( 158 × 330 ) / 2
LCM(158,330) = 52140 / 2
LCM(158,330) = 26070
