So the greatest common factor 8,1,5,98 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,33,64,480
2 | 33, 33, 64, 480 |
2 | 33, 33, 32, 240 |
2 | 33, 33, 16, 120 |
2 | 33, 33, 8, 60 |
2 | 33, 33, 4, 30 |
3 | 33, 33, 2, 15 |
11 | 11, 11, 2, 5 |
1, 1, 2, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 1 x 1 x 2 x 5 = 10560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8/33,1/33,5/64,98/480 is 1/10560
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 33,33,64,480 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,33,64,480) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3168
GCF(33,33,64,480) x common factors =1 x 3168 = 3168
LCM(33,33,64,480) = ( 33 × 33 × 64 × 480 ) / 3168
LCM(33,33,64,480) = 33454080 / 3168
LCM(33,33,64,480) = 10560
