So the greatest common factor 96,21,513 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,405,892
2 | 256, 405, 892 |
2 | 128, 405, 446 |
64, 405, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 64 x 405 x 223 = 23120640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/23120640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 96/256,21/405,513/892 is 3/23120640
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 256,405,892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,405,892) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(256,405,892) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(256,405,892) = ( 256 × 405 × 892 ) / 4
LCM(256,405,892) = 92482560 / 4
LCM(256,405,892) = 23120640
