Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9,72,14,286 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9,72,14,286 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,46,381,544
2 | 61, 46, 381, 544 |
61, 23, 381, 272 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 61 x 23 x 381 x 272 = 290791392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/290791392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9/61,72/46,14/381,286/544 is 1/290791392
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 61,46,381,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,46,381,544) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(61,46,381,544) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(61,46,381,544) = ( 61 × 46 × 381 × 544 ) / 2
LCM(61,46,381,544) = 581582784 / 2
LCM(61,46,381,544) = 290791392
