So the greatest common factor 37,387,490 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,419,376
2 | 264, 419, 376 |
2 | 132, 419, 188 |
2 | 66, 419, 94 |
33, 419, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 33 x 419 x 47 = 5198952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5198952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 37/264,387/419,490/376 is 1/5198952
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 264,419,376 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,419,376) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(264,419,376) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(264,419,376) = ( 264 × 419 × 376 ) / 8
LCM(264,419,376) = 41591616 / 8
LCM(264,419,376) = 5198952
