So the greatest common factor 167,9801 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 972,916
2 | 972, 916 |
2 | 486, 458 |
243, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 243 x 229 = 222588
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/222588
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 167/972,9801/916 is 1/222588
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 972,916 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,916) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,916) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(972,916) = ( 972 × 916 ) / 4
LCM(972,916) = 890352 / 4
LCM(972,916) = 222588
