Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 162,299,349 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 162,299,349 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,97,416
2 | 40, 97, 416 |
2 | 20, 97, 208 |
2 | 10, 97, 104 |
5, 97, 52 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 97 x 52 = 201760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/201760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 162/40,299/97,349/416 is 1/201760
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 40,97,416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,97,416) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(40,97,416) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(40,97,416) = ( 40 × 97 × 416 ) / 8
LCM(40,97,416) = 1614080 / 8
LCM(40,97,416) = 201760
