Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 35,21,636 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 35,21,636 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 169,338,364
2 | 169, 338, 364 |
13 | 169, 169, 182 |
13 | 13, 13, 14 |
1, 1, 14 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 13 x 1 x 1 x 14 = 4732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 35/169,21/338,636/364 is 1/4732
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 169,338,364 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(169,338,364) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 338
GCF(169,338,364) x common factors =13 x 338 = 4394
LCM(169,338,364) = ( 169 × 338 × 364 ) / 4394
LCM(169,338,364) = 20792408 / 4394
LCM(169,338,364) = 4732
