Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 44,60,988 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 44,60,988 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 798,408,912
2 | 798, 408, 912 |
2 | 399, 204, 456 |
2 | 399, 102, 228 |
3 | 399, 51, 114 |
19 | 133, 17, 38 |
7, 17, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 19 x 7 x 17 x 2 = 108528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/108528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 44/798,60/408,988/912 is 4/108528
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 798,408,912 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(798,408,912) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 456
GCF(798,408,912) x common factors =6 x 456 = 2736
LCM(798,408,912) = ( 798 × 408 × 912 ) / 2736
LCM(798,408,912) = 296932608 / 2736
LCM(798,408,912) = 108528
