So the greatest common factor 82,580,197 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,96,420
2 | 46, 96, 420 |
2 | 23, 48, 210 |
3 | 23, 24, 105 |
23, 8, 35 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 23 x 8 x 35 = 77280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/77280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 82/46,580/96,197/420 is 1/77280
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 46,96,420 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,96,420) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(46,96,420) x common factors =2 x 12 = 24
LCM(46,96,420) = ( 46 × 96 × 420 ) / 24
LCM(46,96,420) = 1854720 / 24
LCM(46,96,420) = 77280
