Lets's calculate LCM of 866,215,176
2 | 866, 215, 176 |
433, 215, 88 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 433 x 215 x 88 = 16384720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/16384720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 200/866,972/215,718/176 is 2/16384720
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 866,215,176 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(866,215,176) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(866,215,176) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(866,215,176) = ( 866 × 215 × 176 ) / 2
LCM(866,215,176) = 32769440 / 2
LCM(866,215,176) = 16384720
