Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,381,265 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,381,265 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,65,456
2 | 48, 65, 456 |
2 | 24, 65, 228 |
2 | 12, 65, 114 |
3 | 6, 65, 57 |
2, 65, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 2 x 65 x 19 = 59280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/48,381/65,265/456 is 1/59280
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 48,65,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,65,456) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 24
GCF(48,65,456) x common factors =1 x 24 = 24
LCM(48,65,456) = ( 48 × 65 × 456 ) / 24
LCM(48,65,456) = 1422720 / 24
LCM(48,65,456) = 59280
