Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 48,688,398 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 48,688,398 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,11,825
11 | 59, 11, 825 |
59, 1, 75 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 59 x 1 x 75 = 48675
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/48675
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/59,688/11,398/825 is 2/48675
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 59,11,825 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,11,825) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 11
GCF(59,11,825) x common factors =1 x 11 = 11
LCM(59,11,825) = ( 59 × 11 × 825 ) / 11
LCM(59,11,825) = 535425 / 11
LCM(59,11,825) = 48675
