Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,88,238 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,88,238 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 432,581,782
2 | 432, 581, 782 |
216, 581, 391 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 216 x 581 x 391 = 98137872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/98137872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/432,88/581,238/782 is 2/98137872
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 432,581,782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(432,581,782) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(432,581,782) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(432,581,782) = ( 432 × 581 × 782 ) / 2
LCM(432,581,782) = 196275744 / 2
LCM(432,581,782) = 98137872
