So the greatest common factor 520,640,645 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,27,339
3 | 46, 27, 339 |
46, 9, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 46 x 9 x 113 = 140346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/140346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 520/46,640/27,645/339 is 5/140346
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 46,27,339 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,27,339) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(46,27,339) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(46,27,339) = ( 46 × 27 × 339 ) / 3
LCM(46,27,339) = 421038 / 3
LCM(46,27,339) = 140346
