So the greatest common factor 518,174,564 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,80,50
2 | 52, 80, 50 |
2 | 26, 40, 25 |
5 | 13, 20, 25 |
13, 4, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 13 x 4 x 5 = 5200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 518/52,174/80,564/50 is 2/5200
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 52,80,50 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,80,50) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 20
GCF(52,80,50) x common factors =2 x 20 = 40
LCM(52,80,50) = ( 52 × 80 × 50 ) / 40
LCM(52,80,50) = 208000 / 40
LCM(52,80,50) = 5200
