Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 61,37,260 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 61,37,260 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,454,574
2 | 29, 454, 574 |
29, 227, 287 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 227 x 287 = 3778642
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3778642
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/29,37/454,260/574 is 1/3778642
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 29,454,574 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,454,574) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(29,454,574) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(29,454,574) = ( 29 × 454 × 574 ) / 2
LCM(29,454,574) = 7557284 / 2
LCM(29,454,574) = 3778642
