LCM of Denominators means LCM of 561,170,941 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 561,170,941 is 5279010 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 40,15,906
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 40
List of positive integer factors of 40 that divides 40 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40
Factors of 15
List of positive integer factors of 15 that divides 15 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15
Factors of 906
List of positive integer factors of 906 that divides 906 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,151,302,453,906
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,15,906 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,15,906 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 561,170,941
17 | 561, 170, 941 |
33, 10, 941 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 33 x 10 x 941 = 5279010
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5279010
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/561,15/170,906/941 is 1/5279010
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 561,170,941 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(561,170,941) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 17
GCF(561,170,941) x common factors =1 x 17 = 17
LCM(561,170,941) = ( 561 × 170 × 941 ) / 17
LCM(561,170,941) = 89743170 / 17
LCM(561,170,941) = 5279010
