So the greatest common factor 536,176,800 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,82,938
2 | 35, 82, 938 |
7 | 35, 41, 469 |
5, 41, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 5 x 41 x 67 = 192290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/192290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 536/35,176/82,800/938 is 8/192290
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 35,82,938 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,82,938) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 14
GCF(35,82,938) x common factors =1 x 14 = 14
LCM(35,82,938) = ( 35 × 82 × 938 ) / 14
LCM(35,82,938) = 2692060 / 14
LCM(35,82,938) = 192290
