Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,74,82,22 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,74,82,22 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,69,55,825
3 | 74, 69, 55, 825 |
5 | 74, 23, 55, 275 |
11 | 74, 23, 11, 55 |
74, 23, 1, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 11 x 74 x 23 x 1 x 5 = 1404150
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1404150
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/74,74/69,82/55,22/825 is 2/1404150
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 74,69,55,825 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,69,55,825) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 165
GCF(74,69,55,825) x common factors =1 x 165 = 165
LCM(74,69,55,825) = ( 74 × 69 × 55 × 825 ) / 165
LCM(74,69,55,825) = 231684750 / 165
LCM(74,69,55,825) = 1404150
