Lets's calculate LCM of 176,167,781
11 | 176, 167, 781 |
16, 167, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 16 x 167 x 71 = 2086832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2086832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/176,46/167,786/781 is 2/2086832
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 176,167,781 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(176,167,781) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 11
GCF(176,167,781) x common factors =1 x 11 = 11
LCM(176,167,781) = ( 176 × 167 × 781 ) / 11
LCM(176,167,781) = 22955152 / 11
LCM(176,167,781) = 2086832
