Greatest Common Factor

We found the factors 33,36,72 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 33,36,72 is 3.

Lets's calculate LCM of 66,72,64

2 66, 72, 64
2 33, 36, 32
2 33, 18, 16
3 33, 9, 8
11, 3, 8

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 3 x 8 = 6336

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6336

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/66,36/72,72/64 is 3/6336

Least Common Multiple of 66,72,64 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 66,72,64 with GCF Formula

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 66,72,64 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(66,72,64) = 2

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 24

GCF(66,72,64) x common factors =2 x 24 = 48

LCM(66,72,64) = ( 66 × 72 × 64 ) / 48

LCM(66,72,64) = 304128 / 48

LCM(66,72,64) = 6336
