So the greatest common factor 827,201 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,5918
2 | 16, 5918 |
8, 2959 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 2959 = 47344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 827/16,201/5918 is 1/47344
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 16,5918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,5918) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,5918) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(16,5918) = ( 16 × 5918 ) / 2
LCM(16,5918) = 94688 / 2
LCM(16,5918) = 47344
