The factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, 27
The factors of 45 are 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45
The HCF of 19,27,45 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 19,27,45
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 19
:1,19
Now, list down the factors of 27
:1,3,9,27
Now, list down the factors of 45
:1,3,5,9,15,45
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 19,27,45 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 19,27,45 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,27,74
2 | 24, 27, 74 |
3 | 12, 27, 37 |
4, 9, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 4 x 9 x 37 = 7992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 19/24,27/27,45/74 is 1/7992
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 24,27,74 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,27,74) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(24,27,74) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(24,27,74) = ( 24 × 27 × 74 ) / 6
LCM(24,27,74) = 47952 / 6
LCM(24,27,74) = 7992
