So the greatest common factor 106,144 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 164,205
41 | 164, 205 |
4, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 41 x 4 x 5 = 820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 106/164,144/205 is 2/820
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 164,205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,205) = 41
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(164,205) x common factors =41 x 1 = 41
LCM(164,205) = ( 164 × 205 ) / 41
LCM(164,205) = 33620 / 41
LCM(164,205) = 820
