Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,60,12,31 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,60,12,31 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,90,39,225
2 | 32, 90, 39, 225 |
3 | 16, 45, 39, 225 |
3 | 16, 15, 13, 75 |
5 | 16, 5, 13, 25 |
16, 1, 13, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 16 x 1 x 13 x 5 = 93600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/93600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/32,60/90,12/39,31/225 is 1/93600
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 32,90,39,225 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,90,39,225) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 270
GCF(32,90,39,225) x common factors =1 x 270 = 270
LCM(32,90,39,225) = ( 32 × 90 × 39 × 225 ) / 270
LCM(32,90,39,225) = 25272000 / 270
LCM(32,90,39,225) = 93600
