So the greatest common factor 490,432,400 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,52,52
2 | 14, 52, 52 |
2 | 7, 26, 26 |
13 | 7, 13, 13 |
7, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 13 x 7 x 1 x 1 = 364
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/364
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 490/14,432/52,400/52 is 2/364
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 14,52,52 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,52,52) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 52
GCF(14,52,52) x common factors =2 x 52 = 104
LCM(14,52,52) = ( 14 × 52 × 52 ) / 104
LCM(14,52,52) = 37856 / 104
LCM(14,52,52) = 364
