Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,20,958 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,20,958 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,74,602
2 | 28, 74, 602 |
7 | 14, 37, 301 |
2, 37, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 2 x 37 x 43 = 44548
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/44548
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/28,20/74,958/602 is 1/44548
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 28,74,602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,74,602) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 14
GCF(28,74,602) x common factors =2 x 14 = 28
LCM(28,74,602) = ( 28 × 74 × 602 ) / 28
LCM(28,74,602) = 1247344 / 28
LCM(28,74,602) = 44548
