So the greatest common factor 33,129,287 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,686,118
2 | 236, 686, 118 |
59 | 118, 343, 59 |
2, 343, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 2 x 343 x 1 = 80948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/80948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/236,129/686,287/118 is 1/80948
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 236,686,118 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,686,118) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 118
GCF(236,686,118) x common factors =2 x 118 = 236
LCM(236,686,118) = ( 236 × 686 × 118 ) / 236
LCM(236,686,118) = 19103728 / 236
LCM(236,686,118) = 80948
