So the greatest common factor 54,472,126 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,28,562
2 | 24, 28, 562 |
2 | 12, 14, 281 |
6, 7, 281 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 6 x 7 x 281 = 47208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/47208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 54/24,472/28,126/562 is 2/47208
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 24,28,562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,28,562) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(24,28,562) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(24,28,562) = ( 24 × 28 × 562 ) / 8
LCM(24,28,562) = 377664 / 8
LCM(24,28,562) = 47208
