Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 142,832,848 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 142,832,848 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,75,39
3 | 33, 75, 39 |
11, 25, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 11 x 25 x 13 = 10725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 142/33,832/75,848/39 is 2/10725
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 33,75,39 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,75,39) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(33,75,39) x common factors =3 x 3 = 9
LCM(33,75,39) = ( 33 × 75 × 39 ) / 9
LCM(33,75,39) = 96525 / 9
LCM(33,75,39) = 10725
