So the greatest common factor 23,280,470 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,88,268
2 | 46, 88, 268 |
2 | 23, 44, 134 |
23, 22, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 23 x 22 x 67 = 135608
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/135608
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 23/46,280/88,470/268 is 1/135608
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 46,88,268 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,88,268) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(46,88,268) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(46,88,268) = ( 46 × 88 × 268 ) / 8
LCM(46,88,268) = 1084864 / 8
LCM(46,88,268) = 135608
