Lets's calculate GCF of 188,188
2 | 188, 188 |
2 | 94, 94 |
47 | 47, 47 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 47 = 188
Now, list down the factors of 188
:1,2,4,47,94,188
Now, list down the factors of 188
:1,2,4,47,94,188
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 188,188 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 188,188 is 188.
Lets's calculate LCM of 819,267
3 | 819, 267 |
273, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 273 x 89 = 72891
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 188/72891
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 188/819,188/267 is 188/72891
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 819,267 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(819,267) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(819,267) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(819,267) = ( 819 × 267 ) / 3
LCM(819,267) = 218673 / 3
LCM(819,267) = 72891
