:1,2,7,14,47,94,329,658
Now, list down the factors of 256
:1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 84,658,256 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 84,658,256 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,39,335
3 | 33, 39, 335 |
11, 13, 335 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 11 x 13 x 335 = 143715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/143715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 84/33,658/39,256/335 is 2/143715
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 33,39,335 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,39,335) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(33,39,335) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(33,39,335) = ( 33 × 39 × 335 ) / 3
LCM(33,39,335) = 431145 / 3
LCM(33,39,335) = 143715
