So the greatest common factor 23,974,426 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,48,598
2 | 29, 48, 598 |
29, 24, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 24 x 299 = 416208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/416208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 23/29,974/48,426/598 is 1/416208
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 29,48,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,48,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(29,48,598) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(29,48,598) = ( 29 × 48 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(29,48,598) = 832416 / 2
LCM(29,48,598) = 416208
