So the greatest common factor 8,48,46,877 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,53,502,439
2 | 28, 53, 502, 439 |
14, 53, 251, 439 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 14 x 53 x 251 x 439 = 163520476
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/163520476
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8/28,48/53,46/502,877/439 is 1/163520476
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 28,53,502,439 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,53,502,439) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(28,53,502,439) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(28,53,502,439) = ( 28 × 53 × 502 × 439 ) / 2
LCM(28,53,502,439) = 327040952 / 2
LCM(28,53,502,439) = 163520476
