Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 43,82,150 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 43,82,150 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,63,963
3 | 42, 63, 963 |
3 | 14, 21, 321 |
7 | 14, 7, 107 |
2, 1, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 1 x 107 = 13482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/42,82/63,150/963 is 1/13482
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 42,63,963 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,63,963) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 63
GCF(42,63,963) x common factors =3 x 63 = 189
LCM(42,63,963) = ( 42 × 63 × 963 ) / 189
LCM(42,63,963) = 2548098 / 189
LCM(42,63,963) = 13482
