So the greatest common factor 62,293,406 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,17,846
2 | 86, 17, 846 |
43, 17, 423 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 17 x 423 = 618426
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/618426
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 62/86,293/17,406/846 is 1/618426
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 86,17,846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,17,846) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(86,17,846) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(86,17,846) = ( 86 × 17 × 846 ) / 2
LCM(86,17,846) = 1236852 / 2
LCM(86,17,846) = 618426
