So the greatest common factor 980,862,495 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,16,31
2 | 10, 16, 31 |
5, 8, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 8 x 31 = 2480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 980/10,862/16,495/31 is 1/2480
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 10,16,31 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,16,31) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(10,16,31) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(10,16,31) = ( 10 × 16 × 31 ) / 2
LCM(10,16,31) = 4960 / 2
LCM(10,16,31) = 2480
