So the greatest common factor 5,45,29,786 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,16,789,699
2 | 48, 16, 789, 699 |
2 | 24, 8, 789, 699 |
2 | 12, 4, 789, 699 |
2 | 6, 2, 789, 699 |
3 | 3, 1, 789, 699 |
1, 1, 263, 233 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 263 x 233 = 2941392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2941392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/48,45/16,29/789,786/699 is 1/2941392
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 48,16,789,699 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,16,789,699) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 144
GCF(48,16,789,699) x common factors =1 x 144 = 144
LCM(48,16,789,699) = ( 48 × 16 × 789 × 699 ) / 144
LCM(48,16,789,699) = 423560448 / 144
LCM(48,16,789,699) = 2941392
