So the greatest common factor 2,62,28,942 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,16,247,590
2 | 49, 16, 247, 590 |
49, 8, 247, 295 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 8 x 247 x 295 = 57126160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/57126160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2/49,62/16,28/247,942/590 is 2/57126160
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 49,16,247,590 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,16,247,590) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(49,16,247,590) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(49,16,247,590) = ( 49 × 16 × 247 × 590 ) / 2
LCM(49,16,247,590) = 114252320 / 2
LCM(49,16,247,590) = 57126160
