Lets's calculate LCM of 983,328,768
2 | 983, 328, 768 |
2 | 983, 164, 384 |
2 | 983, 82, 192 |
983, 41, 96 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 983 x 41 x 96 = 30952704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/30952704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 974/983,452/328,962/768 is 2/30952704
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 983,328,768 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(983,328,768) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(983,328,768) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(983,328,768) = ( 983 × 328 × 768 ) / 8
LCM(983,328,768) = 247621632 / 8
LCM(983,328,768) = 30952704
