Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8,28,63 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8,28,63 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 205,828,516
2 | 205, 828, 516 |
2 | 205, 414, 258 |
3 | 205, 207, 129 |
205, 69, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 205 x 69 x 43 = 7298820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7298820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8/205,28/828,63/516 is 1/7298820
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 205,828,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,828,516) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(205,828,516) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(205,828,516) = ( 205 × 828 × 516 ) / 12
LCM(205,828,516) = 87585840 / 12
LCM(205,828,516) = 7298820
