Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4,74,92,717 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4,74,92,717 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,42,506,774
2 | 43, 42, 506, 774 |
3 | 43, 21, 253, 387 |
43 | 43, 7, 253, 129 |
1, 7, 253, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 43 x 1 x 7 x 253 x 3 = 1370754
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1370754
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4/43,74/42,92/506,717/774 is 1/1370754
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 43,42,506,774 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,42,506,774) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 516
GCF(43,42,506,774) x common factors =1 x 516 = 516
LCM(43,42,506,774) = ( 43 × 42 × 506 × 774 ) / 516
LCM(43,42,506,774) = 707309064 / 516
LCM(43,42,506,774) = 1370754
