:1,2,5,10,25,50
Now, list down the factors of 234
:1,2,3,6,9,13,18,26,39,78,117,234
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 49,50,234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 49,50,234 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,36,530
2 | 46, 36, 530 |
23, 18, 265 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 18 x 265 = 219420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/219420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 49/46,50/36,234/530 is 1/219420
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 46,36,530 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,36,530) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(46,36,530) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(46,36,530) = ( 46 × 36 × 530 ) / 4
LCM(46,36,530) = 877680 / 4
LCM(46,36,530) = 219420
