So the greatest common factor 852,707,221 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 500,904,508
2 | 500, 904, 508 |
2 | 250, 452, 254 |
125, 226, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 125 x 226 x 127 = 14351000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14351000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 852/500,707/904,221/508 is 1/14351000
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 500,904,508 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(500,904,508) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(500,904,508) x common factors =4 x 4 = 16
LCM(500,904,508) = ( 500 × 904 × 508 ) / 16
LCM(500,904,508) = 229616000 / 16
LCM(500,904,508) = 14351000
