Lets's calculate LCM of 287,848,994
2 | 287, 848, 994 |
7 | 287, 424, 497 |
41, 424, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 41 x 424 x 71 = 17279696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/17279696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/287,112/848,452/994 is 4/17279696
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 287,848,994 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,848,994) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 14
GCF(287,848,994) x common factors =1 x 14 = 14
LCM(287,848,994) = ( 287 × 848 × 994 ) / 14
LCM(287,848,994) = 241915744 / 14
LCM(287,848,994) = 17279696
