We found the factors 338,785,401 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 338,785,401 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 450,596,145
2 | 450, 596, 145 |
5 | 225, 298, 145 |
45, 298, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 45 x 298 x 29 = 3888900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3888900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 338/450,785/596,401/145 is 1/3888900
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 450,596,145 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(450,596,145) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 10
GCF(450,596,145) x common factors =1 x 10 = 10
LCM(450,596,145) = ( 450 × 596 × 145 ) / 10
LCM(450,596,145) = 38889000 / 10
LCM(450,596,145) = 3888900
