Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 59,79,419 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 59,79,419 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 608,552,598
2 | 608, 552, 598 |
2 | 304, 276, 299 |
2 | 152, 138, 299 |
23 | 76, 69, 299 |
76, 3, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 23 x 76 x 3 x 13 = 545376
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/545376
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/608,79/552,419/598 is 1/545376
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 608,552,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(608,552,598) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 184
GCF(608,552,598) x common factors =2 x 184 = 368
LCM(608,552,598) = ( 608 × 552 × 598 ) / 368
LCM(608,552,598) = 200698368 / 368
LCM(608,552,598) = 545376
