Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 368,239 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 368,239 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 423,160
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 368/423,239/160 is 1/67680
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 423,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,160) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,160) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(423,160) = ( 423 × 160 ) / 1
LCM(423,160) = 67680 / 1
LCM(423,160) = 67680
