Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7,72,62,143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7,72,62,143 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,45,311,301
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 223262235
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/223262235
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7/53,72/45,62/311,143/301 is 1/223262235
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 53,45,311,301 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,45,311,301) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,45,311,301) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,45,311,301) = ( 53 × 45 × 311 × 301 ) / 1
LCM(53,45,311,301) = 223262235 / 1
LCM(53,45,311,301) = 223262235
