Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4481,7186 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4481,7186 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 156,184
2 | 156, 184 |
2 | 78, 92 |
39, 46 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 39 x 46 = 7176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4481/156,7186/184 is 1/7176
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 156,184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(156,184) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(156,184) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(156,184) = ( 156 × 184 ) / 4
LCM(156,184) = 28704 / 4
LCM(156,184) = 7176
