1,2,3,6,7,9,14,18,21,42,63,126
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 15,46,126 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 15,46,126 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,33,816
3 | 83, 33, 816 |
83, 11, 272 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 83 x 11 x 272 = 745008
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/745008
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 15/83,46/33,126/816 is 1/745008
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 83,33,816 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,33,816) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(83,33,816) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(83,33,816) = ( 83 × 33 × 816 ) / 3
LCM(83,33,816) = 2235024 / 3
LCM(83,33,816) = 745008
