Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 59,86,22,655 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 59,86,22,655 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,57,57,26
3 | 13, 57, 57, 26 |
13 | 13, 19, 19, 26 |
19 | 1, 19, 19, 2 |
1, 1, 1, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 19 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 2 = 1482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/13,86/57,22/57,655/26 is 1/1482
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 13,57,57,26 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,57,57,26) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 741
GCF(13,57,57,26) x common factors =1 x 741 = 741
LCM(13,57,57,26) = ( 13 × 57 × 57 × 26 ) / 741
LCM(13,57,57,26) = 1098162 / 741
LCM(13,57,57,26) = 1482
