So the greatest common factor 168,760 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,8499
3 | 99, 8499 |
33, 2833 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 33 x 2833 = 280467
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/280467
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/99,760/8499 is 8/280467
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 99,8499 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,8499) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,8499) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(99,8499) = ( 99 × 8499 ) / 3
LCM(99,8499) = 841401 / 3
LCM(99,8499) = 280467
