Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 28,12,76,48 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 28,12,76,48 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,81,55,45
3 | 55, 81, 55, 45 |
3 | 55, 27, 55, 15 |
5 | 55, 9, 55, 5 |
11 | 11, 9, 11, 1 |
1, 9, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 5 x 11 x 1 x 9 x 1 x 1 = 4455
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4455
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 28/55,12/81,76/55,48/45 is 4/4455
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 55,81,55,45 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,81,55,45) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2475
GCF(55,81,55,45) x common factors =1 x 2475 = 2475
LCM(55,81,55,45) = ( 55 × 81 × 55 × 45 ) / 2475
LCM(55,81,55,45) = 11026125 / 2475
LCM(55,81,55,45) = 4455
