Lets's calculate LCM of 235,340,884
2 | 235, 340, 884 |
2 | 235, 170, 442 |
5 | 235, 85, 221 |
17 | 47, 17, 221 |
47, 1, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 17 x 47 x 1 x 13 = 207740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/207740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 441/235,540/340,589/884 is 1/207740
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 235,340,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(235,340,884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 340
GCF(235,340,884) x common factors =1 x 340 = 340
LCM(235,340,884) = ( 235 × 340 × 884 ) / 340
LCM(235,340,884) = 70631600 / 340
LCM(235,340,884) = 207740
