List of positive integer factors of 14 that divides 14 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 61,17,74,14 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 61,17,74,14 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,58,75,509
2 | 18, 58, 75, 509 |
3 | 9, 29, 75, 509 |
3, 29, 25, 509 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 29 x 25 x 509 = 6642450
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6642450
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/18,17/58,74/75,14/509 is 1/6642450
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 18,58,75,509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,58,75,509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(18,58,75,509) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(18,58,75,509) = ( 18 × 58 × 75 × 509 ) / 6
LCM(18,58,75,509) = 39854700 / 6
LCM(18,58,75,509) = 6642450
