Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3,6,6,57 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3,6,6,57 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,95,61,488
2 | 46, 95, 61, 488 |
61 | 23, 95, 61, 244 |
23, 95, 1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 61 x 23 x 95 x 1 x 4 = 1066280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1066280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/46,6/95,6/61,57/488 is 3/1066280
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 46,95,61,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,95,61,488) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 122
GCF(46,95,61,488) x common factors =1 x 122 = 122
LCM(46,95,61,488) = ( 46 × 95 × 61 × 488 ) / 122
LCM(46,95,61,488) = 130086160 / 122
LCM(46,95,61,488) = 1066280
