GCF of:

Greatest Common Factor of 1/40,5/81,5/87,72/353

Given fractions are 1/40,5/81,5/87,72/353

Formula to find GCF of Fractions is

GCF = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators

As per the formula GCF of Fractions let’s split into two parts and find the GCF of Numerators and LCM of Denominators

In the given fractions GCF of Numerators means GCF of 1,5,5,72

Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1,5,5,72 is 1 .

LCM of Denominators means LCM of 40,81,87,353 as per the given fractions.

LCM of 40,81,87,353 is 33167880 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.

Lets's calculate GCF of 1,5,5,72

GCF of Fractions 1/40,5/81,5/87,72/353 is 1/33167880

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Lets's calculate LCM of 40,81,87,353

3 40, 81, 87, 353
40, 27, 29, 353

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 40 x 27 x 29 x 353 = 33167880

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33167880

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1/40,5/81,5/87,72/353 is 1/33167880

Least Common Multiple of 40,81,87,353 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 40,81,87,353 with GCF Formula

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 40,81,87,353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(40,81,87,353) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3

GCF(40,81,87,353) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3

LCM(40,81,87,353) = ( 40 × 81 × 87 × 353 ) / 3

LCM(40,81,87,353) = 99503640 / 3

LCM(40,81,87,353) = 33167880
