1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12,14,16,21,24,28,32,42,48,56,84,96,112,168,224,336,672
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,287,672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,287,672 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 350,903,450
2 | 350, 903, 450 |
3 | 175, 903, 225 |
5 | 175, 301, 75 |
5 | 35, 301, 15 |
7 | 7, 301, 3 |
1, 43, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 7 x 1 x 43 x 3 = 135450
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/135450
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/350,287/903,672/450 is 7/135450
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 350,903,450 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(350,903,450) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1050
GCF(350,903,450) x common factors =1 x 1050 = 1050
LCM(350,903,450) = ( 350 × 903 × 450 ) / 1050
LCM(350,903,450) = 142222500 / 1050
LCM(350,903,450) = 135450
