Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 39,36,639 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 39,36,639 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 118,347,604
2 | 118, 347, 604 |
59, 347, 302 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 347 x 302 = 12365692
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/12365692
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 39/118,36/347,639/604 is 3/12365692
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 118,347,604 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(118,347,604) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(118,347,604) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(118,347,604) = ( 118 × 347 × 604 ) / 2
LCM(118,347,604) = 24731384 / 2
LCM(118,347,604) = 12365692
