1,5,7,35
Factors of 77
List of positive integer factors of 77 that divides 77 without a remainder.
1,7,11,77
Factors of 222
List of positive integer factors of 222 that divides 222 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,37,74,111,222
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 12,35,77,222 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,35,77,222 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,66,11,98
2 | 99, 66, 11, 98 |
3 | 99, 33, 11, 49 |
11 | 11, 33, 11, 49 |
1, 3, 1, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 11 x 1 x 3 x 1 x 49 = 9702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/99,35/66,77/11,222/98 is 1/9702
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 99,66,11,98 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,66,11,98) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 726
GCF(99,66,11,98) x common factors =1 x 726 = 726
LCM(99,66,11,98) = ( 99 × 66 × 11 × 98 ) / 726
LCM(99,66,11,98) = 7043652 / 726
LCM(99,66,11,98) = 9702
