Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,544,442 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,544,442 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,56,744
2 | 50, 56, 744 |
2 | 25, 28, 372 |
2 | 25, 14, 186 |
25, 7, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 25 x 7 x 93 = 130200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/130200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/50,544/56,442/744 is 2/130200
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 50,56,744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,56,744) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(50,56,744) x common factors =2 x 8 = 16
LCM(50,56,744) = ( 50 × 56 × 744 ) / 16
LCM(50,56,744) = 2083200 / 16
LCM(50,56,744) = 130200
