Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,863,655 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,863,655 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 478,112,672
2 | 478, 112, 672 |
2 | 239, 56, 336 |
2 | 239, 28, 168 |
2 | 239, 14, 84 |
7 | 239, 7, 42 |
239, 1, 6 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 239 x 1 x 6 = 160608
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/160608
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/478,863/112,655/672 is 1/160608
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 478,112,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(478,112,672) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 112
GCF(478,112,672) x common factors =2 x 112 = 224
LCM(478,112,672) = ( 478 × 112 × 672 ) / 224
LCM(478,112,672) = 35976192 / 224
LCM(478,112,672) = 160608
