Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 24,20,692 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 24,20,692 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,58,936
2 | 96, 58, 936 |
2 | 48, 29, 468 |
2 | 24, 29, 234 |
3 | 12, 29, 117 |
4, 29, 39 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 29 x 39 = 108576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/108576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/96,20/58,692/936 is 4/108576
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 96,58,936 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,58,936) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 24
GCF(96,58,936) x common factors =2 x 24 = 48
LCM(96,58,936) = ( 96 × 58 × 936 ) / 48
LCM(96,58,936) = 5211648 / 48
LCM(96,58,936) = 108576
