Lets's calculate LCM of 140,760,787
2 | 140, 760, 787 |
2 | 70, 380, 787 |
5 | 35, 190, 787 |
7, 38, 787 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 38 x 787 = 4186840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4186840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/140,46/760,780/787 is 1/4186840
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 140,760,787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(140,760,787) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 20
GCF(140,760,787) x common factors =1 x 20 = 20
LCM(140,760,787) = ( 140 × 760 × 787 ) / 20
LCM(140,760,787) = 83736800 / 20
LCM(140,760,787) = 4186840
