So the greatest common factor 36,64,70,84 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,73,13,32
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1609504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1609504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/53,64/73,70/13,84/32 is 2/1609504
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 53,73,13,32 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,73,13,32) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,73,13,32) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,73,13,32) = ( 53 × 73 × 13 × 32 ) / 1
LCM(53,73,13,32) = 1609504 / 1
LCM(53,73,13,32) = 1609504
