So the greatest common factor 88,222,901 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,64,146
2 | 37, 64, 146 |
37, 32, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 32 x 73 = 172864
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/172864
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/37,222/64,901/146 is 1/172864
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 37,64,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,64,146) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(37,64,146) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(37,64,146) = ( 37 × 64 × 146 ) / 2
LCM(37,64,146) = 345728 / 2
LCM(37,64,146) = 172864
