Lets's calculate LCM of 59,46,942
2 | 59, 46, 942 |
59, 23, 471 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 23 x 471 = 1278294
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1278294
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 96/59,838/46,680/942 is 2/1278294
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 59,46,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,46,942) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(59,46,942) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(59,46,942) = ( 59 × 46 × 942 ) / 2
LCM(59,46,942) = 2556588 / 2
LCM(59,46,942) = 1278294
