So the greatest common factor 19,72,116 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 112,212,876
2 | 112, 212, 876 |
2 | 56, 106, 438 |
28, 53, 219 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 28 x 53 x 219 = 1299984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1299984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 19/112,72/212,116/876 is 1/1299984
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 112,212,876 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(112,212,876) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(112,212,876) x common factors =4 x 4 = 16
LCM(112,212,876) = ( 112 × 212 × 876 ) / 16
LCM(112,212,876) = 20799744 / 16
LCM(112,212,876) = 1299984
