So the greatest common factor 523,124,816 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,56,256
2 | 98, 56, 256 |
2 | 49, 28, 128 |
2 | 49, 14, 64 |
7 | 49, 7, 32 |
1, 7, 32 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 1 x 7 x 32 = 12544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 523/98,124/56,816/256 is 1/12544
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 98,56,256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,56,256) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 56
GCF(98,56,256) x common factors =2 x 56 = 112
LCM(98,56,256) = ( 98 × 56 × 256 ) / 112
LCM(98,56,256) = 1404928 / 112
LCM(98,56,256) = 12544
