Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 43,34,69,299 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 43,34,69,299 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,37,17,49
17 | 17, 37, 17, 49 |
1, 37, 1, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 1 x 37 x 1 x 49 = 30821
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30821
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/17,34/37,69/17,299/49 is 1/30821
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 17,37,17,49 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,37,17,49) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 17
GCF(17,37,17,49) x common factors =1 x 17 = 17
LCM(17,37,17,49) = ( 17 × 37 × 17 × 49 ) / 17
LCM(17,37,17,49) = 523957 / 17
LCM(17,37,17,49) = 30821
