Lets's calculate GCF of 212,8003
53 | 212, 8003 |
4, 151 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 53 = 53
Now, list down the factors of 212
:1,2,4,53,106,212
Now, list down the factors of 8003
:1,53,151,8003
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 212,8003 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 212,8003 is 53.
Lets's calculate LCM of 358,324
2 | 358, 324 |
179, 162 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 179 x 162 = 57996
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 53/57996
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 212/358,8003/324 is 53/57996
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 358,324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(358,324) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(358,324) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(358,324) = ( 358 × 324 ) / 2
LCM(358,324) = 115992 / 2
LCM(358,324) = 57996
