So the greatest common factor 46,20,780 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 250,661,758
2 | 250, 661, 758 |
125, 661, 379 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 125 x 661 x 379 = 62629750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/62629750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/250,20/661,780/758 is 2/62629750
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 250,661,758 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(250,661,758) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(250,661,758) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(250,661,758) = ( 250 × 661 × 758 ) / 2
LCM(250,661,758) = 125259500 / 2
LCM(250,661,758) = 62629750
