Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6,52,99,451 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6,52,99,451 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,64,154,238
2 | 28, 64, 154, 238 |
2 | 14, 32, 77, 119 |
7 | 7, 16, 77, 119 |
1, 16, 11, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 1 x 16 x 11 x 17 = 83776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/28,52/64,99/154,451/238 is 1/83776
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 28,64,154,238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,64,154,238) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 392
GCF(28,64,154,238) x common factors =2 x 392 = 784
LCM(28,64,154,238) = ( 28 × 64 × 154 × 238 ) / 784
LCM(28,64,154,238) = 65680384 / 784
LCM(28,64,154,238) = 83776
