So the greatest common factor 36,32,890 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 760,638,876
2 | 760, 638, 876 |
2 | 380, 319, 438 |
190, 319, 219 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 190 x 319 x 219 = 53094360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/53094360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/760,32/638,890/876 is 2/53094360
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 760,638,876 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(760,638,876) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(760,638,876) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(760,638,876) = ( 760 × 638 × 876 ) / 8
LCM(760,638,876) = 424754880 / 8
LCM(760,638,876) = 53094360
