So the greatest common factor 10,48,868 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 350,372,992
2 | 350, 372, 992 |
2 | 175, 186, 496 |
31 | 175, 93, 248 |
175, 3, 8 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 31 x 175 x 3 x 8 = 520800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/520800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 10/350,48/372,868/992 is 2/520800
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 350,372,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(350,372,992) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 124
GCF(350,372,992) x common factors =2 x 124 = 248
LCM(350,372,992) = ( 350 × 372 × 992 ) / 248
LCM(350,372,992) = 129158400 / 248
LCM(350,372,992) = 520800
