So the greatest common factor 39,81,208 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,632,488
2 | 421, 632, 488 |
2 | 421, 316, 244 |
2 | 421, 158, 122 |
421, 79, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 421 x 79 x 61 = 16230392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16230392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 39/421,81/632,208/488 is 1/16230392
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 421,632,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,632,488) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(421,632,488) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(421,632,488) = ( 421 × 632 × 488 ) / 8
LCM(421,632,488) = 129843136 / 8
LCM(421,632,488) = 16230392
