Lets's calculate LCM of 845,328,348
2 | 845, 328, 348 |
2 | 845, 164, 174 |
845, 82, 87 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 845 x 82 x 87 = 24112920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/24112920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 208/845,696/328,426/348 is 2/24112920
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 845,328,348 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(845,328,348) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(845,328,348) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(845,328,348) = ( 845 × 328 × 348 ) / 4
LCM(845,328,348) = 96451680 / 4
LCM(845,328,348) = 24112920
