Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 81,855,177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 81,855,177 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 886,234,472
2 | 886, 234, 472 |
443, 117, 236 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 443 x 117 x 236 = 24464232
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/24464232
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 81/886,855/234,177/472 is 3/24464232
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 886,234,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(886,234,472) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(886,234,472) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(886,234,472) = ( 886 × 234 × 472 ) / 4
LCM(886,234,472) = 97856928 / 4
LCM(886,234,472) = 24464232
