We found the factors 226,569,720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 226,569,720 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,52,926
2 | 12, 52, 926 |
2 | 6, 26, 463 |
3, 13, 463 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 13 x 463 = 72228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/72228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 226/12,569/52,720/926 is 1/72228
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 12,52,926 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,52,926) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(12,52,926) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(12,52,926) = ( 12 × 52 × 926 ) / 8
LCM(12,52,926) = 577824 / 8
LCM(12,52,926) = 72228
