So the greatest common factor 51,186,397 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,97,748
2 | 88, 97, 748 |
2 | 44, 97, 374 |
11 | 22, 97, 187 |
2, 97, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 11 x 2 x 97 x 17 = 145112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 51/88,186/97,397/748 is 1/145112
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 88,97,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,97,748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 44
GCF(88,97,748) x common factors =1 x 44 = 44
LCM(88,97,748) = ( 88 × 97 × 748 ) / 44
LCM(88,97,748) = 6384928 / 44
LCM(88,97,748) = 145112
