So the greatest common factor 52,232,876 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 25,11,225
5 | 25, 11, 225 |
5 | 5, 11, 45 |
1, 11, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 5 x 1 x 11 x 9 = 2475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 52/25,232/11,876/225 is 4/2475
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 25,11,225 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,11,225) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 25
GCF(25,11,225) x common factors =1 x 25 = 25
LCM(25,11,225) = ( 25 × 11 × 225 ) / 25
LCM(25,11,225) = 61875 / 25
LCM(25,11,225) = 2475
