We found the factors 572,277,640 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 572,277,640 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,44,884
2 | 15, 44, 884 |
2 | 15, 22, 442 |
15, 11, 221 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 15 x 11 x 221 = 145860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 572/15,277/44,640/884 is 1/145860
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 15,44,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,44,884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(15,44,884) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(15,44,884) = ( 15 × 44 × 884 ) / 4
LCM(15,44,884) = 583440 / 4
LCM(15,44,884) = 145860
