Lets's calculate LCM of 85,25,359
5 | 85, 25, 359 |
17, 5, 359 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 17 x 5 x 359 = 152575
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/152575
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/85,16/25,566/359 is 2/152575
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 85,25,359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,25,359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(85,25,359) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(85,25,359) = ( 85 × 25 × 359 ) / 5
LCM(85,25,359) = 762875 / 5
LCM(85,25,359) = 152575
