So the greatest common factor 44,891,154 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,42,179
3 | 27, 42, 179 |
9, 14, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 9 x 14 x 179 = 67662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/67662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 44/27,891/42,154/179 is 11/67662
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 27,42,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,42,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(27,42,179) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(27,42,179) = ( 27 × 42 × 179 ) / 3
LCM(27,42,179) = 202986 / 3
LCM(27,42,179) = 67662
