So the greatest common factor 21,981,296 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,30,153
3 | 49, 30, 153 |
49, 10, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 49 x 10 x 51 = 74970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/49,981/30,296/153 is 1/74970
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 49,30,153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,30,153) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(49,30,153) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(49,30,153) = ( 49 × 30 × 153 ) / 3
LCM(49,30,153) = 224910 / 3
LCM(49,30,153) = 74970
