So the greatest common factor 38,735,217 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 82,66,618
2 | 82, 66, 618 |
3 | 41, 33, 309 |
41, 11, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 41 x 11 x 103 = 278718
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/278718
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 38/82,735/66,217/618 is 1/278718
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 82,66,618 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(82,66,618) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(82,66,618) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12
LCM(82,66,618) = ( 82 × 66 × 618 ) / 12
LCM(82,66,618) = 3344616 / 12
LCM(82,66,618) = 278718
