So the greatest common factor 426,342,428 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,80,761
2 | 20, 80, 761 |
2 | 10, 40, 761 |
5 | 5, 20, 761 |
1, 4, 761 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 1 x 4 x 761 = 60880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/60880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 426/20,342/80,428/761 is 2/60880
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 20,80,761 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,80,761) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 20
GCF(20,80,761) x common factors =1 x 20 = 20
LCM(20,80,761) = ( 20 × 80 × 761 ) / 20
LCM(20,80,761) = 1217600 / 20
LCM(20,80,761) = 60880
