Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,73,840 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,73,840 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 798,415,930
2 | 798, 415, 930 |
3 | 399, 415, 465 |
5 | 133, 415, 155 |
133, 83, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 5 x 133 x 83 x 31 = 10266270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10266270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/798,73/415,840/930 is 1/10266270
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 798,415,930 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(798,415,930) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 30
GCF(798,415,930) x common factors =1 x 30 = 30
LCM(798,415,930) = ( 798 × 415 × 930 ) / 30
LCM(798,415,930) = 307988100 / 30
LCM(798,415,930) = 10266270
