Lets's calculate LCM of 979,756,156
2 | 979, 756, 156 |
2 | 979, 378, 78 |
3 | 979, 189, 39 |
979, 63, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 979 x 63 x 13 = 9621612
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9621612
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 17/979,32/756,902/156 is 1/9621612
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 979,756,156 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(979,756,156) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(979,756,156) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(979,756,156) = ( 979 × 756 × 156 ) / 12
LCM(979,756,156) = 115459344 / 12
LCM(979,756,156) = 9621612
