So the greatest common factor 29,885,464 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,77,280
7 | 73, 77, 280 |
73, 11, 40 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 73 x 11 x 40 = 224840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/224840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 29/73,885/77,464/280 is 1/224840
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 73,77,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,77,280) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 7
GCF(73,77,280) x common factors =1 x 7 = 7
LCM(73,77,280) = ( 73 × 77 × 280 ) / 7
LCM(73,77,280) = 1573880 / 7
LCM(73,77,280) = 224840
