1,7,457,3199
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5135,3199 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5135,3199 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 362,916
2 | 362, 916 |
181, 458 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 181 x 458 = 165796
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/165796
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5135/362,3199/916 is 1/165796
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 362,916 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,916) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(362,916) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(362,916) = ( 362 × 916 ) / 2
LCM(362,916) = 331592 / 2
LCM(362,916) = 165796
