Greatest Common Factor

We found the factors 49,35,672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 49,35,672 is 7.

Lets's calculate LCM of 18,72,18

2 18, 72, 18
3 9, 36, 9
3 3, 12, 3
1, 4, 1

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 4 x 1 = 72

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/72

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 49/18,35/72,672/18 is 7/72

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

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

GCF(18,72,18) = 18

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 18

GCF(18,72,18) x common factors =18 x 18 = 324

LCM(18,72,18) = ( 18 × 72 × 18 ) / 324

LCM(18,72,18) = 23328 / 324

LCM(18,72,18) = 72
