Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,84,40,59 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,84,40,59 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,86,76,918
2 | 71, 86, 76, 918 |
71, 43, 38, 459 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 71 x 43 x 38 x 459 = 106500852
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/106500852
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/71,84/86,40/76,59/918 is 1/106500852
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 71,86,76,918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,86,76,918) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(71,86,76,918) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(71,86,76,918) = ( 71 × 86 × 76 × 918 ) / 4
LCM(71,86,76,918) = 426003408 / 4
LCM(71,86,76,918) = 106500852
