Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,70,982 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,70,982 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 748,407,567
11 | 748, 407, 567 |
68, 37, 567 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 68 x 37 x 567 = 15692292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/15692292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/748,70/407,982/567 is 2/15692292
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 748,407,567 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(748,407,567) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 11
GCF(748,407,567) x common factors =1 x 11 = 11
LCM(748,407,567) = ( 748 × 407 × 567 ) / 11
LCM(748,407,567) = 172615212 / 11
LCM(748,407,567) = 15692292
