So the greatest common factor 60,500,112 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 250,624,314
2 | 250, 624, 314 |
125, 312, 157 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 125 x 312 x 157 = 12246000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/12246000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/250,500/624,112/314 is 4/12246000
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 250,624,314 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(250,624,314) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(250,624,314) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(250,624,314) = ( 250 × 624 × 314 ) / 4
LCM(250,624,314) = 48984000 / 4
LCM(250,624,314) = 12246000
