Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 96,60,486 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 96,60,486 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,24,804
2 | 87, 24, 804 |
2 | 87, 12, 402 |
3 | 87, 6, 201 |
29, 2, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 29 x 2 x 67 = 46632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/46632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 96/87,60/24,486/804 is 6/46632
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 87,24,804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,24,804) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(87,24,804) x common factors =3 x 12 = 36
LCM(87,24,804) = ( 87 × 24 × 804 ) / 36
LCM(87,24,804) = 1678752 / 36
LCM(87,24,804) = 46632
