Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8,84,64,585 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8,84,64,585 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,77,196,686
2 | 50, 77, 196, 686 |
7 | 25, 77, 98, 343 |
7 | 25, 11, 14, 49 |
25, 11, 2, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 7 x 25 x 11 x 2 x 7 = 377300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/377300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8/50,84/77,64/196,585/686 is 1/377300
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 50,77,196,686 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,77,196,686) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1372
GCF(50,77,196,686) x common factors =1 x 1372 = 1372
LCM(50,77,196,686) = ( 50 × 77 × 196 × 686 ) / 1372
LCM(50,77,196,686) = 517655600 / 1372
LCM(50,77,196,686) = 377300
