Now, list down the factors of 86
:1,2,43,86
Now, list down the factors of 516
:1,2,3,4,6,12,43,86,129,172,258,516
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 80,86,516 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 80,86,516 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,77,142
2 | 68, 77, 142 |
34, 77, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 34 x 77 x 71 = 371756
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/371756
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 80/68,86/77,516/142 is 2/371756
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 68,77,142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,77,142) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(68,77,142) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(68,77,142) = ( 68 × 77 × 142 ) / 2
LCM(68,77,142) = 743512 / 2
LCM(68,77,142) = 371756
