Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 178,884,845 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 178,884,845 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 464,321,712
2 | 464, 321, 712 |
2 | 232, 321, 356 |
2 | 116, 321, 178 |
58, 321, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 58 x 321 x 89 = 13256016
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13256016
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 178/464,884/321,845/712 is 1/13256016
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 464,321,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(464,321,712) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(464,321,712) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(464,321,712) = ( 464 × 321 × 712 ) / 8
LCM(464,321,712) = 106048128 / 8
LCM(464,321,712) = 13256016
