Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 216,795 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 216,795 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,164
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/12628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 216/77,795/164 is 3/12628
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 77,164 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,164) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,164) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,164) = ( 77 × 164 ) / 1
LCM(77,164) = 12628 / 1
LCM(77,164) = 12628
