Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7,86,98,379 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7,86,98,379 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,76,401,266
2 | 14, 76, 401, 266 |
7 | 7, 38, 401, 133 |
19 | 1, 38, 401, 19 |
1, 2, 401, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 19 x 1 x 2 x 401 x 1 = 213332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/213332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7/14,86/76,98/401,379/266 is 1/213332
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 14,76,401,266 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,76,401,266) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 532
GCF(14,76,401,266) x common factors =1 x 532 = 532
LCM(14,76,401,266) = ( 14 × 76 × 401 × 266 ) / 532
LCM(14,76,401,266) = 113492624 / 532
LCM(14,76,401,266) = 213332
