Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4,84,98 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4,84,98 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,244,427
2 | 76, 244, 427 |
2 | 38, 122, 427 |
61 | 19, 61, 427 |
19, 1, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 61 x 19 x 1 x 7 = 32452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/32452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4/76,84/244,98/427 is 2/32452
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 76,244,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,244,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 244
GCF(76,244,427) x common factors =1 x 244 = 244
LCM(76,244,427) = ( 76 × 244 × 427 ) / 244
LCM(76,244,427) = 7918288 / 244
LCM(76,244,427) = 32452
