Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2165,3401 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2165,3401 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 159,319
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50721
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/50721
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2165/159,3401/319 is 1/50721
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 159,319 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,319) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,319) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,319) = ( 159 × 319 ) / 1
LCM(159,319) = 50721 / 1
LCM(159,319) = 50721
