Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 74,671,115 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 74,671,115 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,251,924
3 | 231, 251, 924 |
7 | 77, 251, 308 |
11 | 11, 251, 44 |
1, 251, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 11 x 1 x 251 x 4 = 231924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/231924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 74/231,671/251,115/924 is 1/231924
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 231,251,924 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,251,924) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 231
GCF(231,251,924) x common factors =1 x 231 = 231
LCM(231,251,924) = ( 231 × 251 × 924 ) / 231
LCM(231,251,924) = 53574444 / 231
LCM(231,251,924) = 231924
