Now, list down the factors of 267
:1,3,89,267
Now, list down the factors of 340
:1,2,4,5,10,17,20,34,68,85,170,340
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 267,340 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 267,340 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 267/23,340/968 is 1/22264
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 23,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,968) = ( 23 × 968 ) / 1
LCM(23,968) = 22264 / 1
LCM(23,968) = 22264
