So the greatest common factor 31,23,589 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 448,748,531
2 | 448, 748, 531 |
2 | 224, 374, 531 |
112, 187, 531 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 112 x 187 x 531 = 44485056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/44485056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 31/448,23/748,589/531 is 1/44485056
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 448,748,531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(448,748,531) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(448,748,531) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(448,748,531) = ( 448 × 748 × 531 ) / 4
LCM(448,748,531) = 177940224 / 4
LCM(448,748,531) = 44485056
