So the greatest common factor 87,587,527 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 558,735,980
2 | 558, 735, 980 |
3 | 279, 735, 490 |
5 | 93, 245, 490 |
7 | 93, 49, 98 |
7 | 93, 7, 14 |
93, 1, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 7 x 93 x 1 x 2 = 273420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/273420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/558,587/735,527/980 is 1/273420
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 558,735,980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,735,980) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1470
GCF(558,735,980) x common factors =1 x 1470 = 1470
LCM(558,735,980) = ( 558 × 735 × 980 ) / 1470
LCM(558,735,980) = 401927400 / 1470
LCM(558,735,980) = 273420
