Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5,41,74,178 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5,41,74,178 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,43,660,667
3 | 81, 43, 660, 667 |
27, 43, 220, 667 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 27 x 43 x 220 x 667 = 511095420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/511095420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/81,41/43,74/660,178/667 is 1/511095420
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 81,43,660,667 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,43,660,667) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(81,43,660,667) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(81,43,660,667) = ( 81 × 43 × 660 × 667 ) / 3
LCM(81,43,660,667) = 1533286260 / 3
LCM(81,43,660,667) = 511095420
