Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 42,93,692 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 42,93,692 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,34,556
2 | 39, 34, 556 |
39, 17, 278 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 39 x 17 x 278 = 368628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/368628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 42/39,93/34,692/556 is 1/368628
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 39,34,556 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,34,556) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(39,34,556) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(39,34,556) = ( 39 × 34 × 556 ) / 2
LCM(39,34,556) = 737256 / 2
LCM(39,34,556) = 368628
