So the greatest common factor 203,632 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 342,290
2 | 342, 290 |
171, 145 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 171 x 145 = 49590
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/49590
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 203/342,632/290 is 1/49590
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 342,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(342,290) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(342,290) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(342,290) = ( 342 × 290 ) / 2
LCM(342,290) = 99180 / 2
LCM(342,290) = 49590
