Lets's calculate LCM of 977,320,256
2 | 977, 320, 256 |
2 | 977, 160, 128 |
2 | 977, 80, 64 |
2 | 977, 40, 32 |
2 | 977, 20, 16 |
2 | 977, 10, 8 |
977, 5, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 977 x 5 x 4 = 1250560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1250560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/977,23/320,286/256 is 1/1250560
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 977,320,256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,320,256) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 64
GCF(977,320,256) x common factors =1 x 64 = 64
LCM(977,320,256) = ( 977 × 320 × 256 ) / 64
LCM(977,320,256) = 80035840 / 64
LCM(977,320,256) = 1250560
