So the greatest common factor 84,46,950 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 332,342,527
2 | 332, 342, 527 |
166, 171, 527 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 166 x 171 x 527 = 29918844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/29918844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 84/332,46/342,950/527 is 2/29918844
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 332,342,527 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,342,527) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(332,342,527) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(332,342,527) = ( 332 × 342 × 527 ) / 2
LCM(332,342,527) = 59837688 / 2
LCM(332,342,527) = 29918844
