3 | 195, 672 |
65, 224 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 195
:1,3,5,13,15,39,65,195
Now, list down the factors of 672
:1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12,14,16,21,24,28,32,42,48,56,84,96,112,168,224,336,672
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 195,672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 195,672 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,2851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 239484
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/239484
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 195/84,672/2851 is 3/239484
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 84,2851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,2851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,2851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(84,2851) = ( 84 × 2851 ) / 1
LCM(84,2851) = 239484 / 1
LCM(84,2851) = 239484
