Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 73,52,39,75 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 73,52,39,75 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,68,68,963
2 | 15, 68, 68, 963 |
2 | 15, 34, 34, 963 |
3 | 15, 17, 17, 963 |
17 | 5, 17, 17, 321 |
5, 1, 1, 321 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 17 x 5 x 1 x 1 x 321 = 327420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/327420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/15,52/68,39/68,75/963 is 1/327420
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 15,68,68,963 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,68,68,963) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 204
GCF(15,68,68,963) x common factors =1 x 204 = 204
LCM(15,68,68,963) = ( 15 × 68 × 68 × 963 ) / 204
LCM(15,68,68,963) = 66793680 / 204
LCM(15,68,68,963) = 327420
