Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 51,99,46,550 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 51,99,46,550 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,46,75,94
2 | 59, 46, 75, 94 |
59, 23, 75, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 23 x 75 x 47 = 9566850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9566850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 51/59,99/46,46/75,550/94 is 1/9566850
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 59,46,75,94 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,46,75,94) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(59,46,75,94) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(59,46,75,94) = ( 59 × 46 × 75 × 94 ) / 2
LCM(59,46,75,94) = 19133700 / 2
LCM(59,46,75,94) = 9566850
