We found the factors 324,778,566 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 324,778,566 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,68,286
2 | 37, 68, 286 |
37, 34, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 34 x 143 = 359788
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/359788
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 324/37,778/68,566/286 is 2/359788
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 37,68,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,68,286) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(37,68,286) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(37,68,286) = ( 37 × 68 × 286 ) / 2
LCM(37,68,286) = 719576 / 2
LCM(37,68,286) = 359788
