So the greatest common factor 35,772,659 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,72,232
2 | 37, 72, 232 |
2 | 37, 36, 116 |
2 | 37, 18, 58 |
37, 9, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 37 x 9 x 29 = 77256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/77256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 35/37,772/72,659/232 is 1/77256
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 37,72,232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,72,232) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(37,72,232) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(37,72,232) = ( 37 × 72 × 232 ) / 8
LCM(37,72,232) = 618048 / 8
LCM(37,72,232) = 77256
