1,2,3,4,6,8,11,12,22,24,33,44,66,88,132,264
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,11,264 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,11,264 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,81,273
3 | 29, 81, 273 |
29, 27, 91 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 27 x 91 = 213759
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/213759
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/29,11/81,264/273 is 11/213759
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 29,81,273 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,81,273) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(29,81,273) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(29,81,273) = ( 29 × 81 × 273 ) / 3
LCM(29,81,273) = 641277 / 3
LCM(29,81,273) = 213759
