Lets's calculate LCM of 844,118,940
2 | 844, 118, 940 |
2 | 422, 59, 470 |
211, 59, 235 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 211 x 59 x 235 = 11702060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11702060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/844,41/118,360/940 is 1/11702060
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 844,118,940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,118,940) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(844,118,940) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(844,118,940) = ( 844 × 118 × 940 ) / 8
LCM(844,118,940) = 93616480 / 8
LCM(844,118,940) = 11702060
