Lets's calculate LCM of 164,117,738
2 | 164, 117, 738 |
3 | 82, 117, 369 |
3 | 82, 39, 123 |
41 | 82, 13, 41 |
2, 13, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 41 x 2 x 13 x 1 = 19188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 457/164,474/117,123/738 is 1/19188
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 164,117,738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,117,738) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 738
GCF(164,117,738) x common factors =1 x 738 = 738
LCM(164,117,738) = ( 164 × 117 × 738 ) / 738
LCM(164,117,738) = 14160744 / 738
LCM(164,117,738) = 19188
