Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7,94,37,587 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7,94,37,587 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,36,321,210
2 | 31, 36, 321, 210 |
3 | 31, 18, 321, 105 |
31, 6, 107, 35 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 31 x 6 x 107 x 35 = 4179420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4179420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7/31,94/36,37/321,587/210 is 1/4179420
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 31,36,321,210 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,36,321,210) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 18
GCF(31,36,321,210) x common factors =1 x 18 = 18
LCM(31,36,321,210) = ( 31 × 36 × 321 × 210 ) / 18
LCM(31,36,321,210) = 75229560 / 18
LCM(31,36,321,210) = 4179420
