Greatest Common Factor

We found the factors 40,76,63,79 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,76,63,79 is 1.

Lets's calculate LCM of 55,72,64,18

2 55, 72, 64, 18
2 55, 36, 32, 9
2 55, 18, 16, 9
3 55, 9, 8, 9
3 55, 3, 8, 3
55, 1, 8, 1

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 55 x 1 x 8 x 1 = 31680

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31680

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/55,76/72,63/64,79/18 is 1/31680

Least Common Multiple of 55,72,64,18 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 55,72,64,18 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 55,72,64,18 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(55,72,64,18) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 144

GCF(55,72,64,18) x common factors =1 x 144 = 144

LCM(55,72,64,18) = ( 55 × 72 × 64 × 18 ) / 144

LCM(55,72,64,18) = 4561920 / 144

LCM(55,72,64,18) = 31680
