So the greatest common factor 86,240,425 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,87,678
2 | 44, 87, 678 |
3 | 22, 87, 339 |
22, 29, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 22 x 29 x 113 = 432564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/432564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/44,240/87,425/678 is 1/432564
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 44,87,678 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,87,678) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(44,87,678) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(44,87,678) = ( 44 × 87 × 678 ) / 6
LCM(44,87,678) = 2595384 / 6
LCM(44,87,678) = 432564
