So the greatest common factor 20,96,962 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,13,711
3 | 81, 13, 711 |
3 | 27, 13, 237 |
9, 13, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 9 x 13 x 79 = 83187
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/83187
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 20/81,96/13,962/711 is 2/83187
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 81,13,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,13,711) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 9
GCF(81,13,711) x common factors =1 x 9 = 9
LCM(81,13,711) = ( 81 × 13 × 711 ) / 9
LCM(81,13,711) = 748683 / 9
LCM(81,13,711) = 83187
