Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 505,224,389 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 505,224,389 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,94,56
2 | 43, 94, 56 |
43, 47, 28 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 47 x 28 = 113176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/113176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 505/43,224/94,389/56 is 1/113176
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 43,94,56 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,94,56) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(43,94,56) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(43,94,56) = ( 43 × 94 × 56 ) / 2
LCM(43,94,56) = 226352 / 2
LCM(43,94,56) = 113176
