Lets's calculate LCM of 756,236,429
2 | 756, 236, 429 |
2 | 378, 118, 429 |
3 | 189, 59, 429 |
63, 59, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 63 x 59 x 143 = 6378372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6378372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 32/756,679/236,442/429 is 1/6378372
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 756,236,429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,236,429) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(756,236,429) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(756,236,429) = ( 756 × 236 × 429 ) / 12
LCM(756,236,429) = 76540464 / 12
LCM(756,236,429) = 6378372
