Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,81,510 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,81,510 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 751,878,940
2 | 751, 878, 940 |
751, 439, 470 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 751 x 439 x 470 = 309907660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/309907660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/751,81/878,510/940 is 3/309907660
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 751,878,940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(751,878,940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(751,878,940) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(751,878,940) = ( 751 × 878 × 940 ) / 2
LCM(751,878,940) = 619815320 / 2
LCM(751,878,940) = 309907660
