Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,72,51,31 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,72,51,31 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 63,98,63,836
2 | 63, 98, 63, 836 |
3 | 63, 49, 63, 418 |
3 | 21, 49, 21, 418 |
7 | 7, 49, 7, 418 |
1, 1, 7, 418 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 7 x 418 = 368676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/368676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/63,72/98,51/63,31/836 is 1/368676
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 63,98,63,836 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(63,98,63,836) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 882
GCF(63,98,63,836) x common factors =1 x 882 = 882
LCM(63,98,63,836) = ( 63 × 98 × 63 × 836 ) / 882
LCM(63,98,63,836) = 325172232 / 882
LCM(63,98,63,836) = 368676
