Lets's calculate LCM of 28,87,885
3 | 28, 87, 885 |
28, 29, 295 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 28 x 29 x 295 = 718620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/718620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 76/28,378/87,900/885 is 2/718620
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 28,87,885 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,87,885) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(28,87,885) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(28,87,885) = ( 28 × 87 × 885 ) / 3
LCM(28,87,885) = 2155860 / 3
LCM(28,87,885) = 718620
