We found the factors 373,996,501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 373,996,501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,92,262
2 | 20, 92, 262 |
2 | 10, 46, 131 |
5, 23, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 23 x 131 = 60260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 373/20,996/92,501/262 is 1/60260
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 20,92,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,92,262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(20,92,262) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(20,92,262) = ( 20 × 92 × 262 ) / 8
LCM(20,92,262) = 482080 / 8
LCM(20,92,262) = 60260
