So the greatest common factor 48,55,743 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 599,180,235
5 | 599, 180, 235 |
599, 36, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 599 x 36 x 47 = 5067540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5067540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/599,55/180,743/235 is 1/5067540
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 599,180,235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,180,235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(599,180,235) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(599,180,235) = ( 599 × 180 × 235 ) / 5
LCM(599,180,235) = 25337700 / 5
LCM(599,180,235) = 5067540
