Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 86,54,556 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 86,54,556 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,671,872
2 | 88, 671, 872 |
2 | 44, 671, 436 |
2 | 22, 671, 218 |
11 | 11, 671, 109 |
1, 61, 109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 1 x 61 x 109 = 585112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/585112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/88,54/671,556/872 is 2/585112
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 88,671,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,671,872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 88
GCF(88,671,872) x common factors =1 x 88 = 88
LCM(88,671,872) = ( 88 × 671 × 872 ) / 88
LCM(88,671,872) = 51489856 / 88
LCM(88,671,872) = 585112
