So the greatest common factor 898,359,715 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 638,728,372
2 | 638, 728, 372 |
2 | 319, 364, 186 |
319, 182, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 319 x 182 x 93 = 21597576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21597576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 898/638,359/728,715/372 is 1/21597576
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 638,728,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(638,728,372) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(638,728,372) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(638,728,372) = ( 638 × 728 × 372 ) / 8
LCM(638,728,372) = 172780608 / 8
LCM(638,728,372) = 21597576
