1,2,3,6,61,122,183,366
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 15,679,366 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 15,679,366 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,88,374
2 | 55, 88, 374 |
11 | 55, 44, 187 |
5, 4, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 5 x 4 x 17 = 7480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 15/55,679/88,366/374 is 1/7480
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 55,88,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,88,374) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 22
GCF(55,88,374) x common factors =11 x 22 = 242
LCM(55,88,374) = ( 55 × 88 × 374 ) / 242
LCM(55,88,374) = 1810160 / 242
LCM(55,88,374) = 7480
