So the greatest common factor 382,949 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 160,212
2 | 160, 212 |
2 | 80, 106 |
40, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 40 x 53 = 8480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 382/160,949/212 is 1/8480
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 160,212 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(160,212) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(160,212) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(160,212) = ( 160 × 212 ) / 4
LCM(160,212) = 33920 / 4
LCM(160,212) = 8480
