Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 37,11,129 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 37,11,129 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 311,998,978
2 | 311, 998, 978 |
311, 499, 489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 311 x 499 x 489 = 151774842
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/151774842
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 37/311,11/998,129/978 is 1/151774842
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 311,998,978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(311,998,978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(311,998,978) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(311,998,978) = ( 311 × 998 × 978 ) / 2
LCM(311,998,978) = 303549684 / 2
LCM(311,998,978) = 151774842
