Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 799,375,344 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 799,375,344 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,20,480
2 | 24, 20, 480 |
2 | 12, 10, 240 |
2 | 6, 5, 120 |
3 | 3, 5, 60 |
5 | 1, 5, 20 |
1, 1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 1 x 1 x 4 = 480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 799/24,375/20,344/480 is 1/480
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 24,20,480 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,20,480) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 120
GCF(24,20,480) x common factors =4 x 120 = 480
LCM(24,20,480) = ( 24 × 20 × 480 ) / 480
LCM(24,20,480) = 230400 / 480
LCM(24,20,480) = 480
