So the greatest common factor 117,608,547 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 918,261,378
2 | 918, 261, 378 |
3 | 459, 261, 189 |
3 | 153, 87, 63 |
3 | 51, 29, 21 |
17, 29, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 17 x 29 x 7 = 186354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/186354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 117/918,608/261,547/378 is 1/186354
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 918,261,378 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(918,261,378) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 54
GCF(918,261,378) x common factors =9 x 54 = 486
LCM(918,261,378) = ( 918 × 261 × 378 ) / 486
LCM(918,261,378) = 90568044 / 486
LCM(918,261,378) = 186354
