Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 73,31,57,25 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 73,31,57,25 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,36,66,715
2 | 57, 36, 66, 715 |
3 | 57, 18, 33, 715 |
11 | 19, 6, 11, 715 |
19, 6, 1, 65 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 11 x 19 x 6 x 1 x 65 = 489060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/489060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/57,31/36,57/66,25/715 is 1/489060
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 57,36,66,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,36,66,715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 198
GCF(57,36,66,715) x common factors =1 x 198 = 198
LCM(57,36,66,715) = ( 57 × 36 × 66 × 715 ) / 198
LCM(57,36,66,715) = 96833880 / 198
LCM(57,36,66,715) = 489060
