Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 48,87,801 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 48,87,801 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 230,992,155
2 | 230, 992, 155 |
5 | 115, 496, 155 |
31 | 23, 496, 31 |
23, 16, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 31 x 23 x 16 x 1 = 114080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/114080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/230,87/992,801/155 is 3/114080
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 230,992,155 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(230,992,155) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 310
GCF(230,992,155) x common factors =1 x 310 = 310
LCM(230,992,155) = ( 230 × 992 × 155 ) / 310
LCM(230,992,155) = 35364800 / 310
LCM(230,992,155) = 114080
