So the greatest common factor 190,2678 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 168,170
2 | 168, 170 |
84, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 84 x 85 = 14280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/14280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 190/168,2678/170 is 2/14280
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 168,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,170) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(168,170) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(168,170) = ( 168 × 170 ) / 2
LCM(168,170) = 28560 / 2
LCM(168,170) = 14280
