So the greatest common factor 476,888,188 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,62,496
2 | 13, 62, 496 |
31 | 13, 31, 248 |
13, 1, 8 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 13 x 1 x 8 = 6448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/6448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 476/13,888/62,188/496 is 4/6448
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 13,62,496 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,62,496) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 62
GCF(13,62,496) x common factors =1 x 62 = 62
LCM(13,62,496) = ( 13 × 62 × 496 ) / 62
LCM(13,62,496) = 399776 / 62
LCM(13,62,496) = 6448
