So the greatest common factor 328,820 is 164.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,184
2 | 88, 184 |
2 | 44, 92 |
2 | 22, 46 |
11, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 23 = 2024
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 164/2024
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 328/88,820/184 is 164/2024
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 88,184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,184) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,184) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(88,184) = ( 88 × 184 ) / 8
LCM(88,184) = 16192 / 8
LCM(88,184) = 2024
