1,263
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 488,246,263 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 488,246,263 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,93,962
3 | 45, 93, 962 |
15, 31, 962 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 15 x 31 x 962 = 1341990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1341990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 488/45,246/93,263/962 is 1/1341990
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 45,93,962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,93,962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(45,93,962) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(45,93,962) = ( 45 × 93 × 962 ) / 3
LCM(45,93,962) = 4025970 / 3
LCM(45,93,962) = 1341990
