So the greatest common factor 21,850,856 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 183,723,888
3 | 183, 723, 888 |
61, 241, 296 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 61 x 241 x 296 = 13054488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13054488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/183,850/723,856/888 is 1/13054488
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 183,723,888 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(183,723,888) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(183,723,888) x common factors =3 x 3 = 9
LCM(183,723,888) = ( 183 × 723 × 888 ) / 9
LCM(183,723,888) = 117490392 / 9
LCM(183,723,888) = 13054488
