So the greatest common factor 3,77,40,487 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,28,384,882
2 | 59, 28, 384, 882 |
2 | 59, 14, 192, 441 |
3 | 59, 7, 96, 441 |
7 | 59, 7, 32, 147 |
59, 1, 32, 21 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 59 x 1 x 32 x 21 = 3330432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3330432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/59,77/28,40/384,487/882 is 1/3330432
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 59,28,384,882 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,28,384,882) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 168
GCF(59,28,384,882) x common factors =1 x 168 = 168
LCM(59,28,384,882) = ( 59 × 28 × 384 × 882 ) / 168
LCM(59,28,384,882) = 559512576 / 168
LCM(59,28,384,882) = 3330432
