23, 267, 164 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 69
:1,3,23,69
Now, list down the factors of 801
:1,3,9,89,267,801
Now, list down the factors of 492
:1,2,3,4,6,12,41,82,123,164,246,492
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 69,801,492 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 69,801,492 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,41,276
2 | 42, 41, 276 |
3 | 21, 41, 138 |
7, 41, 46 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 41 x 46 = 79212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/79212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 69/42,801/41,492/276 is 3/79212
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 42,41,276 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,41,276) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(42,41,276) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(42,41,276) = ( 42 × 41 × 276 ) / 6
LCM(42,41,276) = 475272 / 6
LCM(42,41,276) = 79212
