So the greatest common factor 24,265,992 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,666,342
2 | 851, 666, 342 |
3 | 851, 333, 171 |
3 | 851, 111, 57 |
37 | 851, 37, 19 |
23, 1, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 37 x 23 x 1 x 19 = 291042
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/291042
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/851,265/666,992/342 is 1/291042
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 851,666,342 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,666,342) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 666
GCF(851,666,342) x common factors =1 x 666 = 666
LCM(851,666,342) = ( 851 × 666 × 342 ) / 666
LCM(851,666,342) = 193833972 / 666
LCM(851,666,342) = 291042
