Lets's calculate LCM of 61,57,976,264
2 | 61, 57, 976, 264 |
2 | 61, 57, 488, 132 |
2 | 61, 57, 244, 66 |
3 | 61, 57, 122, 33 |
61 | 61, 19, 122, 11 |
1, 19, 2, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 61 x 1 x 19 x 2 x 11 = 611952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/611952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4/61,40/57,20/976,282/264 is 2/611952
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 61,57,976,264 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,57,976,264) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1464
GCF(61,57,976,264) x common factors =1 x 1464 = 1464
LCM(61,57,976,264) = ( 61 × 57 × 976 × 264 ) / 1464
LCM(61,57,976,264) = 895897728 / 1464
LCM(61,57,976,264) = 611952
