Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3,47,88,520 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3,47,88,520 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,42,473,930
2 | 44, 42, 473, 930 |
3 | 22, 21, 473, 465 |
11 | 22, 7, 473, 155 |
2, 7, 43, 155 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 11 x 2 x 7 x 43 x 155 = 6158460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6158460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3/44,47/42,88/473,520/930 is 1/6158460
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 44,42,473,930 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,42,473,930) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 132
GCF(44,42,473,930) x common factors =1 x 132 = 132
LCM(44,42,473,930) = ( 44 × 42 × 473 × 930 ) / 132
LCM(44,42,473,930) = 812916720 / 132
LCM(44,42,473,930) = 6158460
