So the greatest common factor 36,812,914 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,73,652
2 | 78, 73, 652 |
39, 73, 326 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 39 x 73 x 326 = 1856244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1856244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/78,812/73,914/652 is 2/1856244
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 78,73,652 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,73,652) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(78,73,652) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(78,73,652) = ( 78 × 73 × 652 ) / 2
LCM(78,73,652) = 3712488 / 2
LCM(78,73,652) = 1856244
