So the greatest common factor 16,150,374 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,77,889
7 | 76, 77, 889 |
76, 11, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 76 x 11 x 127 = 743204
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/743204
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 16/76,150/77,374/889 is 2/743204
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 76,77,889 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,77,889) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 7
GCF(76,77,889) x common factors =1 x 7 = 7
LCM(76,77,889) = ( 76 × 77 × 889 ) / 7
LCM(76,77,889) = 5202428 / 7
LCM(76,77,889) = 743204
