We found the factors 549,273,915 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 549,273,915 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 85,83,530
5 | 85, 83, 530 |
17, 83, 106 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 17 x 83 x 106 = 747830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/747830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 549/85,273/83,915/530 is 3/747830
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 85,83,530 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,83,530) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(85,83,530) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(85,83,530) = ( 85 × 83 × 530 ) / 5
LCM(85,83,530) = 3739150 / 5
LCM(85,83,530) = 747830
