Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 125,385,200 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 125,385,200 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,38,184
2 | 74, 38, 184 |
37, 19, 92 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 19 x 92 = 129352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/129352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 125/74,385/38,200/184 is 5/129352
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 74,38,184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,38,184) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(74,38,184) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(74,38,184) = ( 74 × 38 × 184 ) / 4
LCM(74,38,184) = 517408 / 4
LCM(74,38,184) = 129352
