1,2,3,6,13,26,39,78
Factors of 221
List of positive integer factors of 221 that divides 221 without a remainder.
1,13,17,221
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 30,64,78,221 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 30,64,78,221 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,52,97,19
2 | 46, 52, 97, 19 |
23, 26, 97, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 26 x 97 x 19 = 2204228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2204228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 30/46,64/52,78/97,221/19 is 1/2204228
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 46,52,97,19 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,52,97,19) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(46,52,97,19) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(46,52,97,19) = ( 46 × 52 × 97 × 19 ) / 2
LCM(46,52,97,19) = 4408456 / 2
LCM(46,52,97,19) = 2204228
