So the greatest common factor 26,739,697 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 846,264,672
2 | 846, 264, 672 |
2 | 423, 132, 336 |
2 | 423, 66, 168 |
3 | 423, 33, 84 |
141, 11, 28 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 141 x 11 x 28 = 1042272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1042272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 26/846,739/264,697/672 is 1/1042272
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 846,264,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(846,264,672) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 24
GCF(846,264,672) x common factors =6 x 24 = 144
LCM(846,264,672) = ( 846 × 264 × 672 ) / 144
LCM(846,264,672) = 150087168 / 144
LCM(846,264,672) = 1042272
