So the greatest common factor 524,916,982 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 501,404,678
2 | 501, 404, 678 |
3 | 501, 202, 339 |
167, 202, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 167 x 202 x 113 = 22871652
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/22871652
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 524/501,916/404,982/678 is 2/22871652
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 501,404,678 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(501,404,678) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(501,404,678) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(501,404,678) = ( 501 × 404 × 678 ) / 6
LCM(501,404,678) = 137229912 / 6
LCM(501,404,678) = 22871652
