We found the factors 48,959,396 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 48,959,396 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 401,854,222
2 | 401, 854, 222 |
401, 427, 111 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 401 x 427 x 111 = 38012394
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/38012394
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/401,959/854,396/222 is 1/38012394
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 401,854,222 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,854,222) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(401,854,222) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(401,854,222) = ( 401 × 854 × 222 ) / 2
LCM(401,854,222) = 76024788 / 2
LCM(401,854,222) = 38012394
