:1,5,25
Now, list down the factors of 54
:1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54
Now, list down the factors of 238
:1,2,7,14,17,34,119,238
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 25,54,238 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 25,54,238 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,68,64
2 | 27, 68, 64 |
2 | 27, 34, 32 |
27, 17, 16 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 27 x 17 x 16 = 29376
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29376
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 25/27,54/68,238/64 is 1/29376
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 27,68,64 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,68,64) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(27,68,64) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(27,68,64) = ( 27 × 68 × 64 ) / 4
LCM(27,68,64) = 117504 / 4
LCM(27,68,64) = 29376
