So the greatest common factor 3,94,16,260 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,50,664,594
2 | 74, 50, 664, 594 |
37, 25, 332, 297 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 25 x 332 x 297 = 182417400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/182417400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/74,94/50,16/664,260/594 is 1/182417400
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 74,50,664,594 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,50,664,594) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(74,50,664,594) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(74,50,664,594) = ( 74 × 50 × 664 × 594 ) / 8
LCM(74,50,664,594) = 1459339200 / 8
LCM(74,50,664,594) = 182417400
