So the greatest common factor 439,589,604 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,64,72
2 | 18, 64, 72 |
2 | 9, 32, 36 |
2 | 9, 16, 18 |
3 | 9, 8, 9 |
3 | 3, 8, 3 |
1, 8, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 8 x 1 = 576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 439/18,589/64,604/72 is 1/576
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 18,64,72 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,64,72) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 72
GCF(18,64,72) x common factors =2 x 72 = 144
LCM(18,64,72) = ( 18 × 64 × 72 ) / 144
LCM(18,64,72) = 82944 / 144
LCM(18,64,72) = 576
