Lets's calculate LCM of 38,79,648
2 | 38, 79, 648 |
19, 79, 324 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 79 x 324 = 972648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/972648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 970/38,888/79,506/648 is 2/972648
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 38,79,648 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,79,648) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(38,79,648) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(38,79,648) = ( 38 × 79 × 648 ) / 2
LCM(38,79,648) = 1945296 / 2
LCM(38,79,648) = 972648
