In the given fractions GCF of Numerators means GCF of 132,503,857
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 132,503,857 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 10,16,232 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 10,16,232 is 2320 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 132,503,857
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 132
List of positive integer factors of 132 that divides 132 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,11,12,22,33,44,66,132
Factors of 503
List of positive integer factors of 503 that divides 503 without a remainder.
1,503
Factors of 857
List of positive integer factors of 857 that divides 857 without a remainder.
1,857
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 132,503,857 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 132,503,857 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,16,232
2 | 10, 16, 232 |
2 | 5, 8, 116 |
2 | 5, 4, 58 |
5, 2, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 2 x 29 = 2320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 132/10,503/16,857/232 is 1/2320
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 10,16,232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,16,232) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(10,16,232) x common factors =2 x 8 = 16
LCM(10,16,232) = ( 10 × 16 × 232 ) / 16
LCM(10,16,232) = 37120 / 16
LCM(10,16,232) = 2320
