We found the factors 71,64,428 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 71,64,428 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 790,140,252
2 | 790, 140, 252 |
2 | 395, 70, 126 |
5 | 395, 35, 63 |
7 | 79, 7, 63 |
79, 1, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 79 x 1 x 9 = 99540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/99540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 71/790,64/140,428/252 is 1/99540
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 790,140,252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(790,140,252) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 140
GCF(790,140,252) x common factors =2 x 140 = 280
LCM(790,140,252) = ( 790 × 140 × 252 ) / 280
LCM(790,140,252) = 27871200 / 280
LCM(790,140,252) = 99540
