Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 952,8136 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 952,8136 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,164
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4756
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/4756
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 952/29,8136/164 is 8/4756
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 29,164 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,164) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,164) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,164) = ( 29 × 164 ) / 1
LCM(29,164) = 4756 / 1
LCM(29,164) = 4756
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
