Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 47,487,631 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 47,487,631 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 846,504,920
2 | 846, 504, 920 |
2 | 423, 252, 460 |
2 | 423, 126, 230 |
3 | 423, 63, 115 |
3 | 141, 21, 115 |
47, 7, 115 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 47 x 7 x 115 = 2724120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2724120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/846,487/504,631/920 is 1/2724120
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 846,504,920 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(846,504,920) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 72
GCF(846,504,920) x common factors =2 x 72 = 144
LCM(846,504,920) = ( 846 × 504 × 920 ) / 144
LCM(846,504,920) = 392273280 / 144
LCM(846,504,920) = 2724120
