1,2,4,8,67,134,268,536
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,30,536 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,30,536 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 89,66,965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5668410
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5668410
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/89,30/66,536/965 is 2/5668410
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 89,66,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(89,66,965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(89,66,965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(89,66,965) = ( 89 × 66 × 965 ) / 1
LCM(89,66,965) = 5668410 / 1
LCM(89,66,965) = 5668410
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
