So the greatest common factor 92,172,939 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,13,369
3 | 72, 13, 369 |
3 | 24, 13, 123 |
8, 13, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 8 x 13 x 41 = 38376
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/38376
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 92/72,172/13,939/369 is 1/38376
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 72,13,369 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,13,369) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 9
GCF(72,13,369) x common factors =1 x 9 = 9
LCM(72,13,369) = ( 72 × 13 × 369 ) / 9
LCM(72,13,369) = 345384 / 9
LCM(72,13,369) = 38376
