Lets's calculate LCM of 93,28,645
3 | 93, 28, 645 |
31, 28, 215 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 31 x 28 x 215 = 559860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/559860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/93,940/28,300/645 is 4/559860
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 93,28,645 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(93,28,645) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(93,28,645) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(93,28,645) = ( 93 × 28 × 645 ) / 3
LCM(93,28,645) = 1679580 / 3
LCM(93,28,645) = 559860
