Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 148,242,463 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 148,242,463 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,20,392
2 | 55, 20, 392 |
2 | 55, 10, 196 |
5 | 55, 5, 98 |
11, 1, 98 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 11 x 1 x 98 = 21560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 148/55,242/20,463/392 is 1/21560
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 55,20,392 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,20,392) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 20
GCF(55,20,392) x common factors =1 x 20 = 20
LCM(55,20,392) = ( 55 × 20 × 392 ) / 20
LCM(55,20,392) = 431200 / 20
LCM(55,20,392) = 21560
