1,5,139,695
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 197,480,695 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 197,480,695 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,32,786
2 | 96, 32, 786 |
2 | 48, 16, 393 |
2 | 24, 8, 393 |
2 | 12, 4, 393 |
2 | 6, 2, 393 |
3 | 3, 1, 393 |
1, 1, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 131 = 12576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 197/96,480/32,695/786 is 1/12576
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 96,32,786 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,32,786) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 96
GCF(96,32,786) x common factors =2 x 96 = 192
LCM(96,32,786) = ( 96 × 32 × 786 ) / 192
LCM(96,32,786) = 2414592 / 192
LCM(96,32,786) = 12576
