Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 95,370,149 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 95,370,149 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,16,336
2 | 86, 16, 336 |
2 | 43, 8, 168 |
2 | 43, 4, 84 |
2 | 43, 2, 42 |
43, 1, 21 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 43 x 1 x 21 = 14448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 95/86,370/16,149/336 is 1/14448
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 86,16,336 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,16,336) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 16
GCF(86,16,336) x common factors =2 x 16 = 32
LCM(86,16,336) = ( 86 × 16 × 336 ) / 32
LCM(86,16,336) = 462336 / 32
LCM(86,16,336) = 14448
