Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6,85,49,171 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6,85,49,171 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,71,405,300
3 | 75, 71, 405, 300 |
5 | 25, 71, 135, 100 |
5 | 5, 71, 27, 20 |
1, 71, 27, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 5 x 1 x 71 x 27 x 4 = 575100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/575100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/75,85/71,49/405,171/300 is 1/575100
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 75,71,405,300 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,71,405,300) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1125
GCF(75,71,405,300) x common factors =1 x 1125 = 1125
LCM(75,71,405,300) = ( 75 × 71 × 405 × 300 ) / 1125
LCM(75,71,405,300) = 646987500 / 1125
LCM(75,71,405,300) = 575100
