So the greatest common factor 29,164,240 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 359,597,345
3 | 359, 597, 345 |
359, 199, 115 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 359 x 199 x 115 = 24647145
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24647145
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 29/359,164/597,240/345 is 1/24647145
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 359,597,345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(359,597,345) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(359,597,345) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(359,597,345) = ( 359 × 597 × 345 ) / 3
LCM(359,597,345) = 73941435 / 3
LCM(359,597,345) = 24647145
