Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2,78,46,274 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2,78,46,274 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 63,36,414,243
2 | 63, 36, 414, 243 |
3 | 63, 18, 207, 243 |
3 | 21, 6, 69, 81 |
7, 2, 23, 27 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 23 x 27 = 156492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/156492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2/63,78/36,46/414,274/243 is 2/156492
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 63,36,414,243 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(63,36,414,243) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 162
GCF(63,36,414,243) x common factors =9 x 162 = 1458
LCM(63,36,414,243) = ( 63 × 36 × 414 × 243 ) / 1458
LCM(63,36,414,243) = 228165336 / 1458
LCM(63,36,414,243) = 156492
