Now, list down the factors of 163
:1,163
Now, list down the factors of 394
:1,2,197,394
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 163,394 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 163,394 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,430
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 181030
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/181030
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 163/421,394/430 is 1/181030
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 421,430 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,430) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,430) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,430) = ( 421 × 430 ) / 1
LCM(421,430) = 181030 / 1
LCM(421,430) = 181030
