Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 246,728,294 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 246,728,294 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,11,90
5 | 65, 11, 90 |
13, 11, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 13 x 11 x 18 = 12870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/12870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 246/65,728/11,294/90 is 2/12870
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 65,11,90 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,11,90) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(65,11,90) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(65,11,90) = ( 65 × 11 × 90 ) / 5
LCM(65,11,90) = 64350 / 5
LCM(65,11,90) = 12870
