Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 22,63,97,55 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 22,63,97,55 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,96,74,83
2 | 73, 96, 74, 83 |
73, 48, 37, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 73 x 48 x 37 x 83 = 21521568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21521568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 22/73,63/96,97/74,55/83 is 1/21521568
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 73,96,74,83 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,96,74,83) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(73,96,74,83) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(73,96,74,83) = ( 73 × 96 × 74 × 83 ) / 2
LCM(73,96,74,83) = 43043136 / 2
LCM(73,96,74,83) = 21521568
