So the greatest common factor 8707,3506 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 370,166
2 | 370, 166 |
185, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 185 x 83 = 30710
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30710
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8707/370,3506/166 is 1/30710
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 370,166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(370,166) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(370,166) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(370,166) = ( 370 × 166 ) / 2
LCM(370,166) = 61420 / 2
LCM(370,166) = 30710
