So the greatest common factor 460,286,196 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 362,315,920
2 | 362, 315, 920 |
5 | 181, 315, 460 |
181, 63, 92 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 181 x 63 x 92 = 10490760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10490760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 460/362,286/315,196/920 is 2/10490760
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 362,315,920 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,315,920) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 10
GCF(362,315,920) x common factors =1 x 10 = 10
LCM(362,315,920) = ( 362 × 315 × 920 ) / 10
LCM(362,315,920) = 104907600 / 10
LCM(362,315,920) = 10490760
