Lets's calculate LCM of 166,1616
2 | 166, 1616 |
83, 808 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 83 x 808 = 134128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/134128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1740/166,7211/1616 is 1/134128
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 166,1616 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(166,1616) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(166,1616) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(166,1616) = ( 166 × 1616 ) / 2
LCM(166,1616) = 268256 / 2
LCM(166,1616) = 134128
