We found the factors 88,39,384 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 88,39,384 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,28,904
2 | 79, 28, 904 |
2 | 79, 14, 452 |
79, 7, 226 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 79 x 7 x 226 = 499912
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/499912
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/79,39/28,384/904 is 1/499912
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 79,28,904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,28,904) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(79,28,904) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(79,28,904) = ( 79 × 28 × 904 ) / 4
LCM(79,28,904) = 1999648 / 4
LCM(79,28,904) = 499912
