Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5,19,58,124 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5,19,58,124 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,74,481,104
2 | 49, 74, 481, 104 |
13 | 49, 37, 481, 52 |
37 | 49, 37, 37, 4 |
49, 1, 1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 37 x 49 x 1 x 1 x 4 = 188552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/188552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/49,19/74,58/481,124/104 is 1/188552
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 49,74,481,104 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,74,481,104) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 962
GCF(49,74,481,104) x common factors =1 x 962 = 962
LCM(49,74,481,104) = ( 49 × 74 × 481 × 104 ) / 962
LCM(49,74,481,104) = 181387024 / 962
LCM(49,74,481,104) = 188552
