Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 517,596,424 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 517,596,424 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,82,96
2 | 50, 82, 96 |
25, 41, 48 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 25 x 41 x 48 = 98400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 517/50,596/82,424/96 is 1/98400
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 50,82,96 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,82,96) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(50,82,96) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(50,82,96) = ( 50 × 82 × 96 ) / 4
LCM(50,82,96) = 393600 / 4
LCM(50,82,96) = 98400
