Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 78,64,977 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 78,64,977 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,28,627
2 | 64, 28, 627 |
2 | 32, 14, 627 |
16, 7, 627 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 16 x 7 x 627 = 280896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/280896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/64,64/28,977/627 is 1/280896
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 64,28,627 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,28,627) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(64,28,627) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(64,28,627) = ( 64 × 28 × 627 ) / 4
LCM(64,28,627) = 1123584 / 4
LCM(64,28,627) = 280896
