:1,2,4,229,458,916
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 60,41,916 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 60,41,916 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,53,972
2 | 48, 53, 972 |
2 | 24, 53, 486 |
3 | 12, 53, 243 |
4, 53, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 53 x 81 = 206064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/206064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/48,41/53,916/972 is 1/206064
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 48,53,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,53,972) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(48,53,972) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(48,53,972) = ( 48 × 53 × 972 ) / 12
LCM(48,53,972) = 2472768 / 12
LCM(48,53,972) = 206064
