:1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,12,14,18,21,24,28,36,42,56,63,72,84,126,168,252,504
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 78,15,504 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 78,15,504 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 763,846,696
2 | 763, 846, 696 |
3 | 763, 423, 348 |
763, 141, 116 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 763 x 141 x 116 = 74877768
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/74877768
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/763,15/846,504/696 is 3/74877768
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 763,846,696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(763,846,696) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(763,846,696) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(763,846,696) = ( 763 × 846 × 696 ) / 6
LCM(763,846,696) = 449266608 / 6
LCM(763,846,696) = 74877768
