Lets's calculate LCM of 792,166,229
2 | 792, 166, 229 |
396, 83, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 396 x 83 x 229 = 15053544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15053544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 631/792,236/166,472/229 is 1/15053544
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 792,166,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(792,166,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(792,166,229) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(792,166,229) = ( 792 × 166 × 229 ) / 2
LCM(792,166,229) = 30107088 / 2
LCM(792,166,229) = 15053544
