So the greatest common factor 52,64,254 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,942,393
3 | 77, 942, 393 |
77, 314, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 77 x 314 x 131 = 9501954
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/9501954
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 52/77,64/942,254/393 is 2/9501954
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 77,942,393 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,942,393) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(77,942,393) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(77,942,393) = ( 77 × 942 × 393 ) / 3
LCM(77,942,393) = 28505862 / 3
LCM(77,942,393) = 9501954
