Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,27,36,54 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,27,36,54 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,20,47,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39736620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/39736620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/99,27/20,36/47,54/427 is 3/39736620
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 99,20,47,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,20,47,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,20,47,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,20,47,427) = ( 99 × 20 × 47 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(99,20,47,427) = 39736620 / 1
LCM(99,20,47,427) = 39736620
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
