We found the factors 95,68,959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 95,68,959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,378,700
2 | 40, 378, 700 |
2 | 20, 189, 350 |
5 | 10, 189, 175 |
7 | 2, 189, 35 |
2, 27, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 2 x 27 x 5 = 37800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 95/40,68/378,959/700 is 1/37800
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 40,378,700 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,378,700) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 140
GCF(40,378,700) x common factors =2 x 140 = 280
LCM(40,378,700) = ( 40 × 378 × 700 ) / 280
LCM(40,378,700) = 10584000 / 280
LCM(40,378,700) = 37800
