1,2,4,13,26,52,169,338,676
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 68,634,676 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 68,634,676 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,32,532
2 | 31, 32, 532 |
2 | 31, 16, 266 |
31, 8, 133 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 31 x 8 x 133 = 131936
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/131936
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 68/31,634/32,676/532 is 2/131936
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 31,32,532 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,32,532) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(31,32,532) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(31,32,532) = ( 31 × 32 × 532 ) / 4
LCM(31,32,532) = 527744 / 4
LCM(31,32,532) = 131936
