1,2,3,4,6,12,31,62,93,124,186,372
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 83,915,372 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 83,915,372 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 273,434,988
2 | 273, 434, 988 |
7 | 273, 217, 494 |
13 | 39, 31, 494 |
3, 31, 38 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 13 x 3 x 31 x 38 = 643188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/643188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 83/273,915/434,372/988 is 1/643188
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 273,434,988 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(273,434,988) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 182
GCF(273,434,988) x common factors =1 x 182 = 182
LCM(273,434,988) = ( 273 × 434 × 988 ) / 182
LCM(273,434,988) = 117060216 / 182
LCM(273,434,988) = 643188
