Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4,95,74,992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4,95,74,992 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,95,727,237
3 | 15, 95, 727, 237 |
5 | 5, 95, 727, 79 |
1, 19, 727, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 1 x 19 x 727 x 79 = 16368405
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16368405
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4/15,95/95,74/727,992/237 is 1/16368405
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 15,95,727,237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,95,727,237) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 15
GCF(15,95,727,237) x common factors =1 x 15 = 15
LCM(15,95,727,237) = ( 15 × 95 × 727 × 237 ) / 15
LCM(15,95,727,237) = 245526075 / 15
LCM(15,95,727,237) = 16368405
