Lets's calculate LCM of 494,414,429
2 | 494, 414, 429 |
3 | 247, 207, 429 |
13 | 247, 69, 143 |
19, 69, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 13 x 19 x 69 x 11 = 1124838
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1124838
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 382/494,231/414,539/429 is 1/1124838
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 494,414,429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,414,429) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 78
GCF(494,414,429) x common factors =1 x 78 = 78
LCM(494,414,429) = ( 494 × 414 × 429 ) / 78
LCM(494,414,429) = 87737364 / 78
LCM(494,414,429) = 1124838
