Lets's calculate LCM of 638,891
11 | 638, 891 |
58, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 58 x 81 = 51678
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/51678
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 360/638,949/891 is 1/51678
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 638,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(638,891) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(638,891) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(638,891) = ( 638 × 891 ) / 11
LCM(638,891) = 568458 / 11
LCM(638,891) = 51678
