1,2,193,386
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6,86,95,386 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6,86,95,386 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,49,182,120
2 | 48, 49, 182, 120 |
2 | 24, 49, 91, 60 |
2 | 12, 49, 91, 30 |
3 | 6, 49, 91, 15 |
7 | 2, 49, 91, 5 |
2, 7, 13, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 7 x 13 x 5 = 152880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/152880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/48,86/49,95/182,386/120 is 1/152880
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 48,49,182,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,49,182,120) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 336
GCF(48,49,182,120) x common factors =1 x 336 = 336
LCM(48,49,182,120) = ( 48 × 49 × 182 × 120 ) / 336
LCM(48,49,182,120) = 51367680 / 336
LCM(48,49,182,120) = 152880
