Lets's calculate LCM of 87,32,784
2 | 87, 32, 784 |
2 | 87, 16, 392 |
2 | 87, 8, 196 |
2 | 87, 4, 98 |
87, 2, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 87 x 2 x 49 = 136416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 59/136416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 649/87,767/32,118/784 is 59/136416
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 87,32,784 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,32,784) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 16
GCF(87,32,784) x common factors =1 x 16 = 16
LCM(87,32,784) = ( 87 × 32 × 784 ) / 16
LCM(87,32,784) = 2182656 / 16
LCM(87,32,784) = 136416
