Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 77,79,503 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 77,79,503 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,232,740
2 | 19, 232, 740 |
2 | 19, 116, 370 |
19, 58, 185 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 19 x 58 x 185 = 815480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/815480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/19,79/232,503/740 is 1/815480
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 19,232,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,232,740) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(19,232,740) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(19,232,740) = ( 19 × 232 × 740 ) / 4
LCM(19,232,740) = 3261920 / 4
LCM(19,232,740) = 815480
