Lets's calculate GCF of 95,16,883
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 95
:1,5,19,95
Now, list down the factors of 16
:1,2,4,8,16
Now, list down the factors of 883
:1,883
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 95,16,883 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 95,16,883 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,72,146
2 | 28, 72, 146 |
2 | 14, 36, 73 |
7, 18, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 18 x 73 = 36792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 95/28,16/72,883/146 is 1/36792
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 28,72,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,72,146) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(28,72,146) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(28,72,146) = ( 28 × 72 × 146 ) / 8
LCM(28,72,146) = 294336 / 8
LCM(28,72,146) = 36792
