Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 34,36,13,52 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 34,36,13,52 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,46,13,884
2 | 36, 46, 13, 884 |
2 | 18, 23, 13, 442 |
13 | 9, 23, 13, 221 |
9, 23, 1, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 13 x 9 x 23 x 1 x 17 = 182988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/182988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 34/36,36/46,13/13,52/884 is 1/182988
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 36,46,13,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,46,13,884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 104
GCF(36,46,13,884) x common factors =1 x 104 = 104
LCM(36,46,13,884) = ( 36 × 46 × 13 × 884 ) / 104
LCM(36,46,13,884) = 19030752 / 104
LCM(36,46,13,884) = 182988
