So the greatest common factor 77,498,116 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,22,989
2 | 26, 22, 989 |
13, 11, 989 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 11 x 989 = 282854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/282854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/26,498/22,116/989 is 1/282854
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 26,22,989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,22,989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(26,22,989) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(26,22,989) = ( 26 × 22 × 989 ) / 2
LCM(26,22,989) = 565708 / 2
LCM(26,22,989) = 282854
