Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 371,254,742 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 371,254,742 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,59,632
2 | 38, 59, 632 |
19, 59, 316 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 59 x 316 = 708472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/708472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 371/38,254/59,742/632 is 1/708472
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 38,59,632 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,59,632) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(38,59,632) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(38,59,632) = ( 38 × 59 × 632 ) / 2
LCM(38,59,632) = 1416944 / 2
LCM(38,59,632) = 708472
