Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 58,97,75,88 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 58,97,75,88 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 30,44,44,36
2 | 30, 44, 44, 36 |
2 | 15, 22, 22, 18 |
3 | 15, 11, 11, 9 |
11 | 5, 11, 11, 3 |
5, 1, 1, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 5 x 1 x 1 x 3 = 1980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 58/30,97/44,75/44,88/36 is 1/1980
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 30,44,44,36 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,44,44,36) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 528
GCF(30,44,44,36) x common factors =2 x 528 = 1056
LCM(30,44,44,36) = ( 30 × 44 × 44 × 36 ) / 1056
LCM(30,44,44,36) = 2090880 / 1056
LCM(30,44,44,36) = 1980
