Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 470,209,254 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 470,209,254 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 606,434,378
2 | 606, 434, 378 |
3 | 303, 217, 189 |
7 | 101, 217, 63 |
101, 31, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 101 x 31 x 9 = 1183518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1183518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 470/606,209/434,254/378 is 1/1183518
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 606,434,378 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,434,378) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 42
GCF(606,434,378) x common factors =2 x 42 = 84
LCM(606,434,378) = ( 606 × 434 × 378 ) / 84
LCM(606,434,378) = 99415512 / 84
LCM(606,434,378) = 1183518
