So the greatest common factor 53,798,925 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,40,312
2 | 26, 40, 312 |
2 | 13, 20, 156 |
2 | 13, 10, 78 |
13 | 13, 5, 39 |
1, 5, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 13 x 1 x 5 x 3 = 1560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 53/26,798/40,925/312 is 1/1560
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 26,40,312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,40,312) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 104
GCF(26,40,312) x common factors =2 x 104 = 208
LCM(26,40,312) = ( 26 × 40 × 312 ) / 208
LCM(26,40,312) = 324480 / 208
LCM(26,40,312) = 1560
