We found the factors 81,39,738 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 81,39,738 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,838,570
2 | 52, 838, 570 |
26, 419, 285 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 26 x 419 x 285 = 6209580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6209580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 81/52,39/838,738/570 is 3/6209580
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 52,838,570 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,838,570) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(52,838,570) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(52,838,570) = ( 52 × 838 × 570 ) / 4
LCM(52,838,570) = 24838320 / 4
LCM(52,838,570) = 6209580
