So the greatest common factor 83,87,308 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 446,524,960
2 | 446, 524, 960 |
2 | 223, 262, 480 |
223, 131, 240 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 223 x 131 x 240 = 28044480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28044480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 83/446,87/524,308/960 is 1/28044480
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 446,524,960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,524,960) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(446,524,960) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(446,524,960) = ( 446 × 524 × 960 ) / 8
LCM(446,524,960) = 224355840 / 8
LCM(446,524,960) = 28044480
