Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 24,98,640 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 24,98,640 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,47,827
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1088332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1088332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/28,98/47,640/827 is 2/1088332
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 28,47,827 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,47,827) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,47,827) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,47,827) = ( 28 × 47 × 827 ) / 1
LCM(28,47,827) = 1088332 / 1
LCM(28,47,827) = 1088332
