Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 34,99,166 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 34,99,166 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,52,120
2 | 37, 52, 120 |
2 | 37, 26, 60 |
37, 13, 30 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 37 x 13 x 30 = 57720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/57720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 34/37,99/52,166/120 is 1/57720
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 37,52,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,52,120) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(37,52,120) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(37,52,120) = ( 37 × 52 × 120 ) / 4
LCM(37,52,120) = 230880 / 4
LCM(37,52,120) = 57720
