Greatest Common Factor

We found the factors 35,19,72,486 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 35,19,72,486 is 1.


Lets's calculate LCM of 42,21,93,72

2 42, 21, 93, 72
3 21, 21, 93, 36
7 7, 7, 31, 12
1, 1, 31, 12

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 31 x 12 = 15624

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15624

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 35/42,19/21,72/93,486/72 is 1/15624

Least Common Multiple of 42,21,93,72 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 42,21,93,72 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 42,21,93,72 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(42,21,93,72) = 3

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 126

GCF(42,21,93,72) x common factors =3 x 126 = 378

LCM(42,21,93,72) = ( 42 × 21 × 93 × 72 ) / 378

LCM(42,21,93,72) = 5905872 / 378

LCM(42,21,93,72) = 15624
