So the greatest common factor 48,85,612 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 324,421,228
2 | 324, 421, 228 |
2 | 162, 421, 114 |
3 | 81, 421, 57 |
27, 421, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 27 x 421 x 19 = 2591676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2591676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/324,85/421,612/228 is 1/2591676
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 324,421,228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(324,421,228) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(324,421,228) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(324,421,228) = ( 324 × 421 × 228 ) / 12
LCM(324,421,228) = 31100112 / 12
LCM(324,421,228) = 2591676
