Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1791,3667 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1791,3667 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 100,168
2 | 100, 168 |
2 | 50, 84 |
25, 42 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 25 x 42 = 4200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1791/100,3667/168 is 1/4200
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 100,168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(100,168) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(100,168) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(100,168) = ( 100 × 168 ) / 4
LCM(100,168) = 16800 / 4
LCM(100,168) = 4200
