Now, list down the factors of 163
:1,163
Now, list down the factors of 9734
:1,2,31,62,157,314,4867,9734
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 163,9734 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 163,9734 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 324,187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 60588
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60588
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 163/324,9734/187 is 1/60588
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 324,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(324,187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(324,187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(324,187) = ( 324 × 187 ) / 1
LCM(324,187) = 60588 / 1
LCM(324,187) = 60588
