Lets's calculate LCM of 80,36,45
2 | 80, 36, 45 |
2 | 40, 18, 45 |
3 | 20, 9, 45 |
3 | 20, 3, 15 |
5 | 20, 1, 5 |
4, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 4 x 1 x 1 = 720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 938/80,266/36,366/45 is 2/720
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 80,36,45 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(80,36,45) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 180
GCF(80,36,45) x common factors =1 x 180 = 180
LCM(80,36,45) = ( 80 × 36 × 45 ) / 180
LCM(80,36,45) = 129600 / 180
LCM(80,36,45) = 720
