We found the factors 80,78,522 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 80,78,522 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 474,862,516
2 | 474, 862, 516 |
3 | 237, 431, 258 |
79, 431, 86 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 79 x 431 x 86 = 17569284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17569284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 80/474,78/862,522/516 is 2/17569284
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 474,862,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,862,516) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(474,862,516) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12
LCM(474,862,516) = ( 474 × 862 × 516 ) / 12
LCM(474,862,516) = 210831408 / 12
LCM(474,862,516) = 17569284
