Lets's calculate LCM of 214,708,232
2 | 214, 708, 232 |
2 | 107, 354, 116 |
107, 177, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 107 x 177 x 58 = 4393848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4393848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 858/214,867/708,117/232 is 3/4393848
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 214,708,232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(214,708,232) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(214,708,232) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(214,708,232) = ( 214 × 708 × 232 ) / 8
LCM(214,708,232) = 35150784 / 8
LCM(214,708,232) = 4393848
