Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 762,550,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 762,550,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,54,360
2 | 44, 54, 360 |
2 | 22, 27, 180 |
3 | 11, 27, 90 |
3 | 11, 9, 30 |
11, 3, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 3 x 10 = 11880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 762/44,550/54,531/360 is 1/11880
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 44,54,360 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,54,360) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 36
GCF(44,54,360) x common factors =2 x 36 = 72
LCM(44,54,360) = ( 44 × 54 × 360 ) / 72
LCM(44,54,360) = 855360 / 72
LCM(44,54,360) = 11880
