Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 97,86,178 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 97,86,178 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,66,266
2 | 57, 66, 266 |
3 | 57, 33, 133 |
19 | 19, 11, 133 |
1, 11, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 19 x 1 x 11 x 7 = 8778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 97/57,86/66,178/266 is 1/8778
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 57,66,266 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,66,266) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 114
GCF(57,66,266) x common factors =1 x 114 = 114
LCM(57,66,266) = ( 57 × 66 × 266 ) / 114
LCM(57,66,266) = 1000692 / 114
LCM(57,66,266) = 8778
