:1,2,4,8,16,31,32,62,124,248,496,992
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 20,457,992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 20,457,992 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,15,627
3 | 50, 15, 627 |
5 | 50, 5, 209 |
10, 1, 209 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 10 x 1 x 209 = 31350
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31350
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 20/50,457/15,992/627 is 1/31350
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 50,15,627 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,15,627) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 15
GCF(50,15,627) x common factors =1 x 15 = 15
LCM(50,15,627) = ( 50 × 15 × 627 ) / 15
LCM(50,15,627) = 470250 / 15
LCM(50,15,627) = 31350
