So the greatest common factor 2038,2663 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 168,772
2 | 168, 772 |
2 | 84, 386 |
42, 193 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 42 x 193 = 32424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2038/168,2663/772 is 1/32424
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 168,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,772) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(168,772) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(168,772) = ( 168 × 772 ) / 4
LCM(168,772) = 129696 / 4
LCM(168,772) = 32424
