Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5,42,95,945 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5,42,95,945 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,42,429,423
2 | 14, 42, 429, 423 |
3 | 7, 21, 429, 423 |
7 | 7, 7, 143, 141 |
1, 1, 143, 141 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 143 x 141 = 846846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/846846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/14,42/42,95/429,945/423 is 1/846846
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 14,42,429,423 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,42,429,423) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 126
GCF(14,42,429,423) x common factors =1 x 126 = 126
LCM(14,42,429,423) = ( 14 × 42 × 429 × 423 ) / 126
LCM(14,42,429,423) = 106702596 / 126
LCM(14,42,429,423) = 846846
