Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 24,527,472 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 24,527,472 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,77,252
7 | 55, 77, 252 |
11 | 55, 11, 36 |
5, 1, 36 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 11 x 5 x 1 x 36 = 13860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/55,527/77,472/252 is 1/13860
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 55,77,252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,77,252) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 77
GCF(55,77,252) x common factors =1 x 77 = 77
LCM(55,77,252) = ( 55 × 77 × 252 ) / 77
LCM(55,77,252) = 1067220 / 77
LCM(55,77,252) = 13860
