We found the factors 506,597,516 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 506,597,516 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,19,884
2 | 16, 19, 884 |
2 | 8, 19, 442 |
4, 19, 221 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 4 x 19 x 221 = 67184
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67184
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 506/16,597/19,516/884 is 1/67184
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 16,19,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,19,884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(16,19,884) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(16,19,884) = ( 16 × 19 × 884 ) / 4
LCM(16,19,884) = 268736 / 4
LCM(16,19,884) = 67184
