We found the factors 417,576,315 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 417,576,315 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,38,537
3 | 87, 38, 537 |
29, 38, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 38 x 179 = 591774
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/591774
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 417/87,576/38,315/537 is 3/591774
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 87,38,537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,38,537) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(87,38,537) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(87,38,537) = ( 87 × 38 × 537 ) / 3
LCM(87,38,537) = 1775322 / 3
LCM(87,38,537) = 591774
