We found the factors 947,924,250 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 947,924,250 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,73,20
2 | 28, 73, 20 |
2 | 14, 73, 10 |
7, 73, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 73 x 5 = 10220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 947/28,924/73,250/20 is 1/10220
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 28,73,20 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,73,20) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(28,73,20) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(28,73,20) = ( 28 × 73 × 20 ) / 4
LCM(28,73,20) = 40880 / 4
LCM(28,73,20) = 10220
