Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6,59,14,988 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6,59,14,988 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,35,229,817
43 | 43, 35, 229, 817 |
1, 35, 229, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 43 x 1 x 35 x 229 x 19 = 6548255
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6548255
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/43,59/35,14/229,988/817 is 1/6548255
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 43,35,229,817 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,35,229,817) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 43
GCF(43,35,229,817) x common factors =1 x 43 = 43
LCM(43,35,229,817) = ( 43 × 35 × 229 × 817 ) / 43
LCM(43,35,229,817) = 281574965 / 43
LCM(43,35,229,817) = 6548255
