1,3,13,39
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 55,80,96,39 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 55,80,96,39 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,61,32,21
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2910432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2910432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 55/71,80/61,96/32,39/21 is 1/2910432
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 71,61,32,21 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,61,32,21) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,61,32,21) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,61,32,21) = ( 71 × 61 × 32 × 21 ) / 1
LCM(71,61,32,21) = 2910432 / 1
LCM(71,61,32,21) = 2910432
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
