Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6,76,44,468 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6,76,44,468 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,68,196,535
2 | 43, 68, 196, 535 |
2 | 43, 34, 98, 535 |
43, 17, 49, 535 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 43 x 17 x 49 x 535 = 76652660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/76652660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/43,76/68,44/196,468/535 is 2/76652660
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 43,68,196,535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,68,196,535) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(43,68,196,535) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(43,68,196,535) = ( 43 × 68 × 196 × 535 ) / 4
LCM(43,68,196,535) = 306610640 / 4
LCM(43,68,196,535) = 76652660
