Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 533,332,182 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 533,332,182 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,24,88
2 | 24, 24, 88 |
2 | 12, 12, 44 |
2 | 6, 6, 22 |
3 | 3, 3, 11 |
1, 1, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 11 = 264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 533/24,332/24,182/88 is 1/264
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 24,24,88 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,24,88) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 24
GCF(24,24,88) x common factors =8 x 24 = 192
LCM(24,24,88) = ( 24 × 24 × 88 ) / 192
LCM(24,24,88) = 50688 / 192
LCM(24,24,88) = 264
