So the greatest common factor 636,510,988 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,99,401
3 | 60, 99, 401 |
20, 33, 401 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 20 x 33 x 401 = 793980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/793980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 636/60,510/99,988/401 is 2/793980
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 60,99,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,99,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(60,99,401) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(60,99,401) = ( 60 × 99 × 401 ) / 3
LCM(60,99,401) = 2381940 / 3
LCM(60,99,401) = 793980
