So the greatest common factor 72,434,700 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 141,476,206
2 | 141, 476, 206 |
141, 238, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 141 x 238 x 103 = 6912948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6912948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/141,434/476,700/206 is 2/6912948
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 141,476,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(141,476,206) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(141,476,206) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(141,476,206) = ( 141 × 476 × 206 ) / 2
LCM(141,476,206) = 13825896 / 2
LCM(141,476,206) = 6912948
