Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 48,751,251 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 48,751,251 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,78,536
2 | 28, 78, 536 |
2 | 14, 39, 268 |
7, 39, 134 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 39 x 134 = 146328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/146328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/28,751/78,251/536 is 1/146328
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 28,78,536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,78,536) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(28,78,536) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(28,78,536) = ( 28 × 78 × 536 ) / 8
LCM(28,78,536) = 1170624 / 8
LCM(28,78,536) = 146328
