So the greatest common factor 2,70,34,686 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,48,420,644
2 | 44, 48, 420, 644 |
2 | 22, 24, 210, 322 |
3 | 11, 12, 105, 161 |
7 | 11, 4, 35, 161 |
11, 4, 5, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 11 x 4 x 5 x 23 = 425040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/425040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2/44,70/48,34/420,686/644 is 2/425040
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 44,48,420,644 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,48,420,644) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 336
GCF(44,48,420,644) x common factors =4 x 336 = 1344
LCM(44,48,420,644) = ( 44 × 48 × 420 × 644 ) / 1344
LCM(44,48,420,644) = 571253760 / 1344
LCM(44,48,420,644) = 425040
