Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7,57,61,156 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7,57,61,156 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,17,136,229
17 | 35, 17, 136, 229 |
35, 1, 8, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 35 x 1 x 8 x 229 = 1090040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1090040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7/35,57/17,61/136,156/229 is 1/1090040
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 35,17,136,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,17,136,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 17
GCF(35,17,136,229) x common factors =1 x 17 = 17
LCM(35,17,136,229) = ( 35 × 17 × 136 × 229 ) / 17
LCM(35,17,136,229) = 18530680 / 17
LCM(35,17,136,229) = 1090040
