Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 162,7277 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 162,7277 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 762,160
2 | 762, 160 |
381, 80 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 381 x 80 = 60960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 162/762,7277/160 is 1/60960
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 762,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(762,160) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(762,160) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(762,160) = ( 762 × 160 ) / 2
LCM(762,160) = 121920 / 2
LCM(762,160) = 60960
