Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8686,9960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8686,9960 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 164,2814
2 | 164, 2814 |
82, 1407 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 82 x 1407 = 230748
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/230748
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8686/164,9960/2814 is 2/230748
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 164,2814 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,2814) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(164,2814) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(164,2814) = ( 164 × 2814 ) / 2
LCM(164,2814) = 461496 / 2
LCM(164,2814) = 230748
