Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3,27,12,199 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3,27,12,199 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,25,734,395
2 | 72, 25, 734, 395 |
5 | 36, 25, 367, 395 |
36, 5, 367, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 36 x 5 x 367 x 79 = 52187400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52187400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/72,27/25,12/734,199/395 is 1/52187400
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 72,25,734,395 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,25,734,395) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 10
GCF(72,25,734,395) x common factors =1 x 10 = 10
LCM(72,25,734,395) = ( 72 × 25 × 734 × 395 ) / 10
LCM(72,25,734,395) = 521874000 / 10
LCM(72,25,734,395) = 52187400
