So the greatest common factor 476,148,140 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,48,844
2 | 53, 48, 844 |
2 | 53, 24, 422 |
53, 12, 211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 53 x 12 x 211 = 536784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/536784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 476/53,148/48,140/844 is 4/536784
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 53,48,844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,48,844) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(53,48,844) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(53,48,844) = ( 53 × 48 × 844 ) / 4
LCM(53,48,844) = 2147136 / 4
LCM(53,48,844) = 536784
