So the greatest common factor 36,76,975 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 727,726,318
2 | 727, 726, 318 |
3 | 727, 363, 159 |
727, 121, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 727 x 121 x 53 = 27973506
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/27973506
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/727,76/726,975/318 is 1/27973506
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 727,726,318 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,726,318) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(727,726,318) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(727,726,318) = ( 727 × 726 × 318 ) / 6
LCM(727,726,318) = 167841036 / 6
LCM(727,726,318) = 27973506
