Lets's calculate GCF of 643,157
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 643
:1,643
Now, list down the factors of 157
:1,157
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 643,157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 643,157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,775
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 643/16,157/775 is 1/12400
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 16,775 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,775) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,775) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,775) = ( 16 × 775 ) / 1
LCM(16,775) = 12400 / 1
LCM(16,775) = 12400
