So the greatest common factor 140,289,436 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 109,546,117
3 | 109, 546, 117 |
13 | 109, 182, 39 |
109, 14, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 109 x 14 x 3 = 178542
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178542
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 140/109,289/546,436/117 is 1/178542
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 109,546,117 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(109,546,117) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 39
GCF(109,546,117) x common factors =1 x 39 = 39
LCM(109,546,117) = ( 109 × 546 × 117 ) / 39
LCM(109,546,117) = 6963138 / 39
LCM(109,546,117) = 178542
