Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5,88,72,109 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5,88,72,109 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,15,560,602
2 | 34, 15, 560, 602 |
5 | 17, 15, 280, 301 |
7 | 17, 3, 56, 301 |
17, 3, 8, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 7 x 17 x 3 x 8 x 43 = 1228080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1228080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/34,88/15,72/560,109/602 is 1/1228080
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 34,15,560,602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,15,560,602) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 140
GCF(34,15,560,602) x common factors =1 x 140 = 140
LCM(34,15,560,602) = ( 34 × 15 × 560 × 602 ) / 140
LCM(34,15,560,602) = 171931200 / 140
LCM(34,15,560,602) = 1228080
