So the greatest common factor 168,773 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,636
2 | 52, 636 |
2 | 26, 318 |
13, 159 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 13 x 159 = 8268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/52,773/636 is 1/8268
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 52,636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,636) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,636) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(52,636) = ( 52 × 636 ) / 4
LCM(52,636) = 33072 / 4
LCM(52,636) = 8268
