Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 39,285,270 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 39,285,270 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,68,356
2 | 18, 68, 356 |
2 | 9, 34, 178 |
9, 17, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 9 x 17 x 89 = 54468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/54468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 39/18,285/68,270/356 is 3/54468
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 18,68,356 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,68,356) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(18,68,356) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(18,68,356) = ( 18 × 68 × 356 ) / 8
LCM(18,68,356) = 435744 / 8
LCM(18,68,356) = 54468
