So the greatest common factor 136,397,948 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,71,27
3 | 84, 71, 27 |
28, 71, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 28 x 71 x 9 = 53676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/53676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 136/84,397/71,948/27 is 1/53676
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 84,71,27 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,71,27) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(84,71,27) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(84,71,27) = ( 84 × 71 × 27 ) / 3
LCM(84,71,27) = 161028 / 3
LCM(84,71,27) = 53676
