Now, list down the factors of 161
:1,7,23,161
Now, list down the factors of 195
:1,3,5,13,15,39,65,195
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 161,195 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 161,195 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,513
3 | 72, 513 |
3 | 24, 171 |
8, 57 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 8 x 57 = 4104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 161/72,195/513 is 1/4104
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 72,513 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,513) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,513) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(72,513) = ( 72 × 513 ) / 9
LCM(72,513) = 36936 / 9
LCM(72,513) = 4104
