We found the factors 84,76,456 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 84,76,456 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,44,292
2 | 39, 44, 292 |
2 | 39, 22, 146 |
39, 11, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 39 x 11 x 73 = 125268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/125268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 84/39,76/44,456/292 is 4/125268
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 39,44,292 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,44,292) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(39,44,292) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(39,44,292) = ( 39 × 44 × 292 ) / 4
LCM(39,44,292) = 501072 / 4
LCM(39,44,292) = 125268
