So the greatest common factor 84,309,359 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 85,72,494
2 | 85, 72, 494 |
85, 36, 247 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 85 x 36 x 247 = 1511640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1511640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 84/85,309/72,359/494 is 1/1511640
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 85,72,494 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,72,494) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(85,72,494) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(85,72,494) = ( 85 × 72 × 494 ) / 2
LCM(85,72,494) = 3023280 / 2
LCM(85,72,494) = 1511640
