So the greatest common factor 265,199,315 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 538,779,332
2 | 538, 779, 332 |
269, 779, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 269 x 779 x 166 = 69570932
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/69570932
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 265/538,199/779,315/332 is 1/69570932
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 538,779,332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,779,332) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(538,779,332) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(538,779,332) = ( 538 × 779 × 332 ) / 2
LCM(538,779,332) = 139141864 / 2
LCM(538,779,332) = 69570932
