:1,2,163,326
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 163,326 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 163,326 is 163.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,3232
2 | 50, 3232 |
25, 1616 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 25 x 1616 = 80800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 163/80800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 163/50,326/3232 is 163/80800
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 50,3232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,3232) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,3232) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(50,3232) = ( 50 × 3232 ) / 2
LCM(50,3232) = 161600 / 2
LCM(50,3232) = 80800
