Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 60,48,958 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 60,48,958 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,97,714
2 | 16, 97, 714 |
8, 97, 357 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 97 x 357 = 554064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/554064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/16,48/97,958/714 is 2/554064
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 16,97,714 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,97,714) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(16,97,714) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(16,97,714) = ( 16 × 97 × 714 ) / 2
LCM(16,97,714) = 1108128 / 2
LCM(16,97,714) = 554064
