Lets's calculate LCM of 971,660,608
2 | 971, 660, 608 |
2 | 971, 330, 304 |
971, 165, 152 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 971 x 165 x 152 = 97410720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/97410720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 564/971,201/660,231/608 is 3/97410720
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 971,660,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,660,608) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(971,660,608) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(971,660,608) = ( 971 × 660 × 608 ) / 4
LCM(971,660,608) = 389642880 / 4
LCM(971,660,608) = 97410720
