:1,79,89,7031
Now, list down the factors of 2276
:1,2,4,569,1138,2276
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7031,2276 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7031,2276 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 161,232
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7031/161,2276/232 is 1/37352
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 161,232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(161,232) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(161,232) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(161,232) = ( 161 × 232 ) / 1
LCM(161,232) = 37352 / 1
LCM(161,232) = 37352
