Lets's calculate LCM of 754,237,675
3 | 754, 237, 675 |
754, 79, 225 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 754 x 79 x 225 = 40207050
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/40207050
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 26/754,72/237,966/675 is 2/40207050
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 754,237,675 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(754,237,675) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(754,237,675) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(754,237,675) = ( 754 × 237 × 675 ) / 3
LCM(754,237,675) = 120621150 / 3
LCM(754,237,675) = 40207050
