Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7,40,26,328 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7,40,26,328 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,81,372,477
3 | 55, 81, 372, 477 |
3 | 55, 27, 124, 159 |
55, 9, 124, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 55 x 9 x 124 x 53 = 29278260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29278260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7/55,40/81,26/372,328/477 is 1/29278260
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 55,81,372,477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,81,372,477) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 27
GCF(55,81,372,477) x common factors =1 x 27 = 27
LCM(55,81,372,477) = ( 55 × 81 × 372 × 477 ) / 27
LCM(55,81,372,477) = 790513020 / 27
LCM(55,81,372,477) = 29278260
