So the greatest common factor 69,387,424 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,42,374
2 | 24, 42, 374 |
3 | 12, 21, 187 |
4, 7, 187 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 4 x 7 x 187 = 31416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 69/24,387/42,424/374 is 1/31416
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 24,42,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,42,374) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(24,42,374) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12
LCM(24,42,374) = ( 24 × 42 × 374 ) / 12
LCM(24,42,374) = 376992 / 12
LCM(24,42,374) = 31416
