Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 99,81,174 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 99,81,174 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 687,186,827
3 | 687, 186, 827 |
229, 62, 827 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 229 x 62 x 827 = 35225238
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/35225238
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 99/687,81/186,174/827 is 3/35225238
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 687,186,827 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,186,827) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(687,186,827) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(687,186,827) = ( 687 × 186 × 827 ) / 3
LCM(687,186,827) = 105675714 / 3
LCM(687,186,827) = 35225238
