So the greatest common factor 724,250,762 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,23,774
43 | 43, 23, 774 |
1, 23, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 43 x 1 x 23 x 18 = 17802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 724/43,250/23,762/774 is 2/17802
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 43,23,774 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,23,774) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 43
GCF(43,23,774) x common factors =1 x 43 = 43
LCM(43,23,774) = ( 43 × 23 × 774 ) / 43
LCM(43,23,774) = 765486 / 43
LCM(43,23,774) = 17802
