Lets's calculate LCM of 736,169,221
13 | 736, 169, 221 |
736, 13, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 736 x 13 x 17 = 2114528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2114528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 351/736,686/169,550/221 is 1/2114528
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 736,169,221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(736,169,221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 13
GCF(736,169,221) x common factors =1 x 13 = 13
LCM(736,169,221) = ( 736 × 169 × 221 ) / 13
LCM(736,169,221) = 27488864 / 13
LCM(736,169,221) = 2114528
