Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 19,38,14,87 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 19,38,14,87 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,21,85,901
7 | 28, 21, 85, 901 |
17 | 4, 3, 85, 901 |
4, 3, 5, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 17 x 4 x 3 x 5 x 53 = 378420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/378420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 19/28,38/21,14/85,87/901 is 1/378420
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 28,21,85,901 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,21,85,901) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 119
GCF(28,21,85,901) x common factors =1 x 119 = 119
LCM(28,21,85,901) = ( 28 × 21 × 85 × 901 ) / 119
LCM(28,21,85,901) = 45031980 / 119
LCM(28,21,85,901) = 378420
