Lets's calculate LCM of 942,474,901
2 | 942, 474, 901 |
3 | 471, 237, 901 |
157, 79, 901 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 157 x 79 x 901 = 67050618
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/67050618
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 26/942,424/474,490/901 is 2/67050618
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 942,474,901 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,474,901) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(942,474,901) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(942,474,901) = ( 942 × 474 × 901 ) / 6
LCM(942,474,901) = 402303708 / 6
LCM(942,474,901) = 67050618
