So the greatest common factor 3,744,941 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,85,71
5 | 35, 85, 71 |
7, 17, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 7 x 17 x 71 = 42245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/35,744/85,941/71 is 1/42245
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 35,85,71 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,85,71) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(35,85,71) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(35,85,71) = ( 35 × 85 × 71 ) / 5
LCM(35,85,71) = 211225 / 5
LCM(35,85,71) = 42245
