1,19
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 61,15,98,19 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 61,15,98,19 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,21,70,563
3 | 15, 21, 70, 563 |
5 | 5, 7, 70, 563 |
7 | 1, 7, 14, 563 |
1, 1, 2, 563 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 2 x 563 = 118230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/118230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/15,15/21,98/70,19/563 is 1/118230
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 15,21,70,563 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,21,70,563) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 105
GCF(15,21,70,563) x common factors =1 x 105 = 105
LCM(15,21,70,563) = ( 15 × 21 × 70 × 563 ) / 105
LCM(15,21,70,563) = 12414150 / 105
LCM(15,21,70,563) = 118230
