Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 63,31,38,42 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 63,31,38,42 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,14,38,89
2 | 41, 14, 38, 89 |
41, 7, 19, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 41 x 7 x 19 x 89 = 970634
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/970634
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 63/41,31/14,38/38,42/89 is 1/970634
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 41,14,38,89 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,14,38,89) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(41,14,38,89) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(41,14,38,89) = ( 41 × 14 × 38 × 89 ) / 2
LCM(41,14,38,89) = 1941268 / 2
LCM(41,14,38,89) = 970634
