Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 58,56,968 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 58,56,968 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,92,636
2 | 61, 92, 636 |
2 | 61, 46, 318 |
61, 23, 159 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 61 x 23 x 159 = 892308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/892308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 58/61,56/92,968/636 is 2/892308
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 61,92,636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,92,636) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(61,92,636) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(61,92,636) = ( 61 × 92 × 636 ) / 4
LCM(61,92,636) = 3569232 / 4
LCM(61,92,636) = 892308
