Lets's calculate GCF of 186,403
31 | 186, 403 |
6, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 31 = 31
Now, list down the factors of 186
:1,2,3,6,31,62,93,186
Now, list down the factors of 403
:1,13,31,403
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 186,403 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 186,403 is 31.
Lets's calculate LCM of 102,128
2 | 102, 128 |
51, 64 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 51 x 64 = 6528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/6528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 186/102,403/128 is 31/6528
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 102,128 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(102,128) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(102,128) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(102,128) = ( 102 × 128 ) / 2
LCM(102,128) = 13056 / 2
LCM(102,128) = 6528
