Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 942,498,397 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 942,498,397 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,30,580
2 | 88, 30, 580 |
2 | 44, 15, 290 |
5 | 22, 15, 145 |
22, 3, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 22 x 3 x 29 = 38280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/38280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 942/88,498/30,397/580 is 1/38280
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 88,30,580 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,30,580) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 20
GCF(88,30,580) x common factors =2 x 20 = 40
LCM(88,30,580) = ( 88 × 30 × 580 ) / 40
LCM(88,30,580) = 1531200 / 40
LCM(88,30,580) = 38280
