Lets's calculate LCM of 386,384,960
2 | 386, 384, 960 |
2 | 193, 192, 480 |
2 | 193, 96, 240 |
2 | 193, 48, 120 |
2 | 193, 24, 60 |
2 | 193, 12, 30 |
3 | 193, 6, 15 |
193, 2, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 193 x 2 x 5 = 370560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/370560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 53/386,636/384,408/960 is 1/370560
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 386,384,960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(386,384,960) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 192
GCF(386,384,960) x common factors =2 x 192 = 384
LCM(386,384,960) = ( 386 × 384 × 960 ) / 384
LCM(386,384,960) = 142295040 / 384
LCM(386,384,960) = 370560
