We found the factors 838,322,237 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 838,322,237 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 586,612,590
2 | 586, 612, 590 |
293, 306, 295 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 293 x 306 x 295 = 52898220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52898220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 838/586,322/612,237/590 is 1/52898220
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 586,612,590 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,612,590) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(586,612,590) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(586,612,590) = ( 586 × 612 × 590 ) / 4
LCM(586,612,590) = 211592880 / 4
LCM(586,612,590) = 52898220
