We found the factors 11,38,481 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,38,481 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 561,168,516
2 | 561, 168, 516 |
2 | 561, 84, 258 |
3 | 561, 42, 129 |
187, 14, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 187 x 14 x 43 = 1350888
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1350888
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/561,38/168,481/516 is 1/1350888
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 561,168,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(561,168,516) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(561,168,516) x common factors =3 x 12 = 36
LCM(561,168,516) = ( 561 × 168 × 516 ) / 36
LCM(561,168,516) = 48631968 / 36
LCM(561,168,516) = 1350888
