Lets's calculate LCM of 45,77,98,506
| 2 | 45, 77, 98, 506 |
| 7 | 45, 77, 49, 253 |
| 11 | 45, 11, 7, 253 |
| 45, 1, 7, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 11 x 45 x 1 x 7 x 23 = 1115730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1115730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/45,6/77,5/98,18/506 is 1/1115730
Least Common Multiple of 45,77,98,506 with GCF Formula
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 45,77,98,506 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,77,98,506) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 154
GCF(45,77,98,506) x common factors =1 x 154 = 154
LCM(45,77,98,506) = ( 45 × 77 × 98 × 506 ) / 154
LCM(45,77,98,506) = 171822420 / 154
LCM(45,77,98,506) = 1115730
