Lets's calculate LCM of 746,490,170
2 | 746, 490, 170 |
5 | 373, 245, 85 |
373, 49, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 373 x 49 x 17 = 3107090
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3107090
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 274/746,228/490,442/170 is 2/3107090
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 746,490,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(746,490,170) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 10
GCF(746,490,170) x common factors =2 x 10 = 20
LCM(746,490,170) = ( 746 × 490 × 170 ) / 20
LCM(746,490,170) = 62141800 / 20
LCM(746,490,170) = 3107090
