So the greatest common factor 468,332,792 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,66,268
2 | 96, 66, 268 |
2 | 48, 33, 134 |
3 | 24, 33, 67 |
8, 11, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 8 x 11 x 67 = 70752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/70752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 468/96,332/66,792/268 is 4/70752
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 96,66,268 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,66,268) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(96,66,268) x common factors =2 x 12 = 24
LCM(96,66,268) = ( 96 × 66 × 268 ) / 24
LCM(96,66,268) = 1698048 / 24
LCM(96,66,268) = 70752
