So the greatest common factor 278,915,752 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 336,935,225
3 | 336, 935, 225 |
5 | 112, 935, 75 |
112, 187, 15 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 112 x 187 x 15 = 4712400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4712400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 278/336,915/935,752/225 is 1/4712400
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 336,935,225 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(336,935,225) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 15
GCF(336,935,225) x common factors =1 x 15 = 15
LCM(336,935,225) = ( 336 × 935 × 225 ) / 15
LCM(336,935,225) = 70686000 / 15
LCM(336,935,225) = 4712400
