1,3,9,43,129,387
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3,45,88,387 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3,45,88,387 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,13,325,148
13 | 21, 13, 325, 148 |
21, 1, 25, 148 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 21 x 1 x 25 x 148 = 1010100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1010100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/21,45/13,88/325,387/148 is 1/1010100
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 21,13,325,148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,13,325,148) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 13
GCF(21,13,325,148) x common factors =1 x 13 = 13
LCM(21,13,325,148) = ( 21 × 13 × 325 × 148 ) / 13
LCM(21,13,325,148) = 13131300 / 13
LCM(21,13,325,148) = 1010100
