So the greatest common factor 44,36,292 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 591,272,484
2 | 591, 272, 484 |
2 | 591, 136, 242 |
591, 68, 121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 591 x 68 x 121 = 19450992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/19450992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 44/591,36/272,292/484 is 4/19450992
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 591,272,484 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(591,272,484) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(591,272,484) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(591,272,484) = ( 591 × 272 × 484 ) / 4
LCM(591,272,484) = 77803968 / 4
LCM(591,272,484) = 19450992
