Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 71,60,41,56 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 71,60,41,56 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 22,44,76,154
2 | 22, 44, 76, 154 |
2 | 11, 22, 38, 77 |
11 | 11, 11, 19, 77 |
1, 1, 19, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 11 x 1 x 1 x 19 x 7 = 5852
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5852
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 71/22,60/44,41/76,56/154 is 1/5852
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 22,44,76,154 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(22,44,76,154) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 968
GCF(22,44,76,154) x common factors =2 x 968 = 1936
LCM(22,44,76,154) = ( 22 × 44 × 76 × 154 ) / 1936
LCM(22,44,76,154) = 11329472 / 1936
LCM(22,44,76,154) = 5852
