Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,596,605 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,596,605 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 916,116,696
2 | 916, 116, 696 |
2 | 458, 58, 348 |
29 | 229, 29, 174 |
229, 1, 6 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 29 x 229 x 1 x 6 = 159384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/159384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/916,596/116,605/696 is 1/159384
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 916,116,696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(916,116,696) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 116
GCF(916,116,696) x common factors =4 x 116 = 464
LCM(916,116,696) = ( 916 × 116 × 696 ) / 464
LCM(916,116,696) = 73954176 / 464
LCM(916,116,696) = 159384
