Lets's calculate LCM of 44,16,517
| 2 | 44, 16, 517 |
| 2 | 22, 8, 517 |
| 11 | 11, 4, 517 |
| 1, 4, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 11 x 1 x 4 x 47 = 8272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 23/44,15/16,432/517 is 1/8272
Least Common Multiple of 44,16,517 with GCF Formula
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 44,16,517 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,16,517) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 44
GCF(44,16,517) x common factors =1 x 44 = 44
LCM(44,16,517) = ( 44 × 16 × 517 ) / 44
LCM(44,16,517) = 363968 / 44
LCM(44,16,517) = 8272
