Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 780,756,444 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 780,756,444 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,17,36
3 | 57, 17, 36 |
19, 17, 12 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 19 x 17 x 12 = 11628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/11628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 780/57,756/17,444/36 is 12/11628
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 57,17,36 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,17,36) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(57,17,36) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(57,17,36) = ( 57 × 17 × 36 ) / 3
LCM(57,17,36) = 34884 / 3
LCM(57,17,36) = 11628
