We found the factors 88,369,988 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 88,369,988 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,36,336
2 | 14, 36, 336 |
2 | 7, 18, 168 |
3 | 7, 9, 84 |
7 | 7, 3, 28 |
1, 3, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 3 x 4 = 1008
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1008
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/14,369/36,988/336 is 1/1008
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 14,36,336 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,36,336) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 84
GCF(14,36,336) x common factors =2 x 84 = 168
LCM(14,36,336) = ( 14 × 36 × 336 ) / 168
LCM(14,36,336) = 169344 / 168
LCM(14,36,336) = 1008
