∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 163 = 163
Now, list down the factors of 326
:1,2,163,326
Now, list down the factors of 163
:1,163
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 326,163 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 326,163 is 163.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,4201
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 214251
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 163/214251
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 326/51,163/4201 is 163/214251
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 51,4201 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,4201) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,4201) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,4201) = ( 51 × 4201 ) / 1
LCM(51,4201) = 214251 / 1
LCM(51,4201) = 214251
