Lets's calculate LCM of 224,507,274
2 | 224, 507, 274 |
112, 507, 137 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 112 x 507 x 137 = 15558816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15558816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 38/224,228/507,387/274 is 1/15558816
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 224,507,274 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,507,274) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(224,507,274) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(224,507,274) = ( 224 × 507 × 274 ) / 2
LCM(224,507,274) = 31117632 / 2
LCM(224,507,274) = 15558816
