Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 612,3185 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 612,3185 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 162,948
2 | 162, 948 |
3 | 81, 474 |
27, 158 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 27 x 158 = 25596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/25596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 612/162,3185/948 is 1/25596
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 162,948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,948) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,948) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(162,948) = ( 162 × 948 ) / 6
LCM(162,948) = 153576 / 6
LCM(162,948) = 25596
