So the greatest common factor 20,26,382 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,96,880
2 | 60, 96, 880 |
2 | 30, 48, 440 |
2 | 15, 24, 220 |
2 | 15, 12, 110 |
3 | 15, 6, 55 |
5 | 5, 2, 55 |
1, 2, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 1 x 2 x 11 = 5280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 20/60,26/96,382/880 is 2/5280
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 60,96,880 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,96,880) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 240
GCF(60,96,880) x common factors =4 x 240 = 960
LCM(60,96,880) = ( 60 × 96 × 880 ) / 960
LCM(60,96,880) = 5068800 / 960
LCM(60,96,880) = 5280
