Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 25,34,987 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 25,34,987 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 831,552,472
2 | 831, 552, 472 |
2 | 831, 276, 236 |
2 | 831, 138, 118 |
3 | 831, 69, 59 |
277, 23, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 277 x 23 x 59 = 9021336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9021336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 25/831,34/552,987/472 is 1/9021336
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 831,552,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(831,552,472) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 24
GCF(831,552,472) x common factors =1 x 24 = 24
LCM(831,552,472) = ( 831 × 552 × 472 ) / 24
LCM(831,552,472) = 216512064 / 24
LCM(831,552,472) = 9021336
