So the greatest common factor 886,154,878 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 688,592,544
2 | 688, 592, 544 |
2 | 344, 296, 272 |
2 | 172, 148, 136 |
2 | 86, 74, 68 |
43, 37, 34 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 43 x 37 x 34 = 865504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/865504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 886/688,154/592,878/544 is 2/865504
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 688,592,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(688,592,544) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 16
GCF(688,592,544) x common factors =16 x 16 = 256
LCM(688,592,544) = ( 688 × 592 × 544 ) / 256
LCM(688,592,544) = 221569024 / 256
LCM(688,592,544) = 865504
