Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 242,242,246 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 242,242,246 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 805,505,206
5 | 805, 505, 206 |
161, 101, 206 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 161 x 101 x 206 = 16748830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/16748830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 242/805,242/505,246/206 is 2/16748830
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 805,505,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(805,505,206) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(805,505,206) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(805,505,206) = ( 805 × 505 × 206 ) / 5
LCM(805,505,206) = 83744150 / 5
LCM(805,505,206) = 16748830
