So the greatest common factor 2,78,45,782 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,73,934,257
73 | 73, 73, 934, 257 |
1, 1, 934, 257 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 73 x 1 x 1 x 934 x 257 = 17522774
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17522774
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2/73,78/73,45/934,782/257 is 1/17522774
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 73,73,934,257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,73,934,257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 73
GCF(73,73,934,257) x common factors =1 x 73 = 73
LCM(73,73,934,257) = ( 73 × 73 × 934 × 257 ) / 73
LCM(73,73,934,257) = 1279162502 / 73
LCM(73,73,934,257) = 17522774
