So the greatest common factor 956,398,446 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,59,593
59 | 59, 59, 593 |
1, 1, 593 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 59 x 1 x 1 x 593 = 34987
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/34987
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 956/59,398/59,446/593 is 2/34987
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 59,59,593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,59,593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 59
GCF(59,59,593) x common factors =1 x 59 = 59
LCM(59,59,593) = ( 59 × 59 × 593 ) / 59
LCM(59,59,593) = 2064233 / 59
LCM(59,59,593) = 34987
