3 | 84, 105 |
7 | 28, 35 |
4, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 = 42
Now, list down the factors of 168
:1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12,14,21,24,28,42,56,84,168
Now, list down the factors of 210
:1,2,3,5,6,7,10,14,15,21,30,35,42,70,105,210
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 168,210 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 168,210 is 42.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,944
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 42/10384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/11,210/944 is 42/10384
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 11,944 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,944) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,944) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,944) = ( 11 × 944 ) / 1
LCM(11,944) = 10384 / 1
LCM(11,944) = 10384
