Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 34,72,60,65 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 34,72,60,65 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,93,76,589
2 | 20, 93, 76, 589 |
2 | 10, 93, 38, 589 |
19 | 5, 93, 19, 589 |
31 | 5, 93, 1, 31 |
5, 3, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 19 x 31 x 5 x 3 x 1 x 1 = 35340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/35340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 34/20,72/93,60/76,65/589 is 1/35340
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 20,93,76,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,93,76,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2356
GCF(20,93,76,589) x common factors =1 x 2356 = 2356
LCM(20,93,76,589) = ( 20 × 93 × 76 × 589 ) / 2356
LCM(20,93,76,589) = 83261040 / 2356
LCM(20,93,76,589) = 35340
