Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,690,526 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,690,526 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 359,806,804
2 | 359, 806, 804 |
359, 403, 402 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 359 x 403 x 402 = 116320308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/116320308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/359,690/806,526/804 is 2/116320308
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 359,806,804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(359,806,804) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(359,806,804) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(359,806,804) = ( 359 × 806 × 804 ) / 2
LCM(359,806,804) = 232640616 / 2
LCM(359,806,804) = 116320308
