List of positive integer factors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 52,22,65,21 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 52,22,65,21 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,27,57,603
3 | 73, 27, 57, 603 |
3 | 73, 9, 19, 201 |
73, 3, 19, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 73 x 3 x 19 x 67 = 2509083
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2509083
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 52/73,22/27,65/57,21/603 is 1/2509083
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 73,27,57,603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,27,57,603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 27
GCF(73,27,57,603) x common factors =1 x 27 = 27
LCM(73,27,57,603) = ( 73 × 27 × 57 × 603 ) / 27
LCM(73,27,57,603) = 67745241 / 27
LCM(73,27,57,603) = 2509083
