Finding Average of 42/57, 9/5, 39/21

Given fractions are 42/57,9/5,39/21

The LCM of 57,5,21 (denominators of the fractions) is 1995

Finding LCM of 57,5,21 by Common Division

Arrange the Inputs 57,5,21 in a horizontal line separated by commas and divide them with a prime number. Note the quotients in the next row and divide with quotients with prime numbers again. Continue the process until you have all co primes in the last.

3 57, 5, 21
19, 5, 7

As all the numbers left in the last row are co primes you need not do the common division process further.

To obtain the Least Common Multiple, multiply the prime numbers with which you have divided the given numbers and the co primes in the last row i.e. 3 x 19 x 5 x 7 = 1995

Therefore, LCM of 57,5,21 is 1995

Finding LCM of 57,5,21 using GCF Formula

Step1:

Let's calculate the LCM of first two numbers

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a x b) / GCF(a,b)

GCF(57, 5) = 1

LCM(57, 5) = ( 57 x 5 ) / 1

LCM(57, 5) = 285 / 1

LCM(57, 5) = 285


Step2:

Here we consider the LCM from the above i.e. 285 as first number and the next as 21

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a x b) / GCF(a,b)

GCF(285, 21) = 3

LCM(285, 21) = ( 285 x 21 ) / 3

LCM(285, 21) = 5985 / 3

LCM(285, 21) = 1995

LCM of 57,5,21 is 1995

The least common Multiple (LCM) is: 1995.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCM:

= 1470/1995,3591/1995,3705/1995

= 1470+3591+3705/1995

Totaling the numerator:

8766/1995

Reducing the fraction:

2922/665

Dividing by the number of values: 3

The given fractions are 2922/665 and 3/1

On dividing the both fractions,2922/665 ÷ 3/1

Then the denominator of the first fraction i.e., 665 will comes to the numerator of the second fraction and gets multiplied,

And in the same way,the denominator of the second fraction i.e., 1 will comes to the numerator of the first fraction and gets multiplied:

2922/665 ÷ 3/1 = 2922 x 1/665 x 3

On Multiplying the denominators and the numerators,the fraction value we get,

2922/1995

Result: 974/665

Average of fraction = 974/665
