Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 496,157,598 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 496,157,598 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 90,61,740
2 | 90, 61, 740 |
5 | 45, 61, 370 |
9, 61, 74 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 9 x 61 x 74 = 406260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/406260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 496/90,157/61,598/740 is 1/406260
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 90,61,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(90,61,740) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 10
GCF(90,61,740) x common factors =1 x 10 = 10
LCM(90,61,740) = ( 90 × 61 × 740 ) / 10
LCM(90,61,740) = 4062600 / 10
LCM(90,61,740) = 406260
