Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 98,52,82,545 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 98,52,82,545 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,29,86,86
2 | 24, 29, 86, 86 |
43 | 12, 29, 43, 43 |
12, 29, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 12 x 29 x 1 x 1 = 29928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 98/24,52/29,82/86,545/86 is 1/29928
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 24,29,86,86 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,29,86,86) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 172
GCF(24,29,86,86) x common factors =1 x 172 = 172
LCM(24,29,86,86) = ( 24 × 29 × 86 × 86 ) / 172
LCM(24,29,86,86) = 5147616 / 172
LCM(24,29,86,86) = 29928
