We found the factors 52,438,444 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 52,438,444 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,41,879
3 | 66, 41, 879 |
22, 41, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 22 x 41 x 293 = 792858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/792858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 52/66,438/41,444/879 is 2/792858
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 66,41,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,41,879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(66,41,879) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(66,41,879) = ( 66 × 41 × 879 ) / 3
LCM(66,41,879) = 2378574 / 3
LCM(66,41,879) = 792858
