Lets's calculate GCF of 43,141,165
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 43
:1,43
Now, list down the factors of 141
:1,3,47,141
Now, list down the factors of 165
:1,3,5,11,15,33,55,165
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 43,141,165 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 43,141,165 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,76,874
2 | 12, 76, 874 |
2 | 6, 38, 437 |
19 | 3, 19, 437 |
3, 1, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 19 x 3 x 1 x 23 = 5244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/12,141/76,165/874 is 1/5244
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 12,76,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,76,874) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 76
GCF(12,76,874) x common factors =2 x 76 = 152
LCM(12,76,874) = ( 12 × 76 × 874 ) / 152
LCM(12,76,874) = 797088 / 152
LCM(12,76,874) = 5244
