1,2,3,6,83,166,249,498
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 502,511,498 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 502,511,498 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 287,287,244
7 | 287, 287, 244 |
41 | 41, 41, 244 |
1, 1, 244 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 41 x 1 x 1 x 244 = 70028
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/70028
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 502/287,511/287,498/244 is 1/70028
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 287,287,244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,287,244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 287
GCF(287,287,244) x common factors =1 x 287 = 287
LCM(287,287,244) = ( 287 × 287 × 244 ) / 287
LCM(287,287,244) = 20098036 / 287
LCM(287,287,244) = 70028
