Lets's calculate LCM of 96,96,78
| 2 | 96, 96, 78 |
| 2 | 48, 48, 39 |
| 2 | 24, 24, 39 |
| 2 | 12, 12, 39 |
| 2 | 6, 6, 39 |
| 3 | 3, 3, 39 |
| 1, 1, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 13 = 1248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 901/96,176/96,185/78 is 1/1248
Least Common Multiple of 96,96,78 with GCF Formula
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 96,96,78 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,96,78) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 96
GCF(96,96,78) x common factors =6 x 96 = 576
LCM(96,96,78) = ( 96 × 96 × 78 ) / 576
LCM(96,96,78) = 718848 / 576
LCM(96,96,78) = 1248
