We found the factors 2023,8071 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2023,8071 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 272,160
2 | 272, 160 |
2 | 136, 80 |
2 | 68, 40 |
2 | 34, 20 |
17, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 17 x 10 = 2720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/2720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2023/272,8071/160 is 7/2720
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 272,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,160) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,160) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(272,160) = ( 272 × 160 ) / 16
LCM(272,160) = 43520 / 16
LCM(272,160) = 2720
