Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8017,8889 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8017,8889 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,144
2 | 88, 144 |
2 | 44, 72 |
2 | 22, 36 |
11, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 18 = 1584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8017/88,8889/144 is 1/1584
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 88,144 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,144) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,144) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(88,144) = ( 88 × 144 ) / 8
LCM(88,144) = 12672 / 8
LCM(88,144) = 1584
