Greatest Common Factor

We found the factors 12,44,70,272 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,44,70,272 is 2.

Lets's calculate LCM of 16,48,66,55

2 16, 48, 66, 55
2 8, 24, 33, 55
2 4, 12, 33, 55
2 2, 6, 33, 55
3 1, 3, 33, 55
11 1, 1, 11, 55
1, 1, 1, 5

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 5 = 2640

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2640

Least Common Multiple of 16,48,66,55 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 16,48,66,55 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 16,48,66,55 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(16,48,66,55) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1056

GCF(16,48,66,55) x common factors =1 x 1056 = 1056

LCM(16,48,66,55) = ( 16 × 48 × 66 × 55 ) / 1056

LCM(16,48,66,55) = 2787840 / 1056

LCM(16,48,66,55) = 2640
