Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 97,15,96,11 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 97,15,96,11 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,97,42,969
2 | 84, 97, 42, 969 |
3 | 42, 97, 21, 969 |
7 | 14, 97, 7, 323 |
2, 97, 1, 323 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 97 x 1 x 323 = 2631804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2631804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 97/84,15/97,96/42,11/969 is 1/2631804
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 84,97,42,969 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,97,42,969) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 126
GCF(84,97,42,969) x common factors =1 x 126 = 126
LCM(84,97,42,969) = ( 84 × 97 × 42 × 969 ) / 126
LCM(84,97,42,969) = 331607304 / 126
LCM(84,97,42,969) = 2631804
