Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5,6,8,58 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5,6,8,58 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,53,29,336
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19107984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19107984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/37,6/53,8/29,58/336 is 1/19107984
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 37,53,29,336 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,53,29,336) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,53,29,336) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,53,29,336) = ( 37 × 53 × 29 × 336 ) / 1
LCM(37,53,29,336) = 19107984 / 1
LCM(37,53,29,336) = 19107984
