Lets's calculate LCM of 558,894,104
2 | 558, 894, 104 |
3 | 279, 447, 52 |
93, 149, 52 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 93 x 149 x 52 = 4323384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4323384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 236/558,728/894,208/104 is 4/4323384
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 558,894,104 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,894,104) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(558,894,104) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12
LCM(558,894,104) = ( 558 × 894 × 104 ) / 12
LCM(558,894,104) = 51880608 / 12
LCM(558,894,104) = 4323384
