Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 991,157,462 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 991,157,462 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,92,839
2 | 66, 92, 839 |
33, 46, 839 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 33 x 46 x 839 = 2547204
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2547204
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 991/66,157/92,462/839 is 1/2547204
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 66,92,839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,92,839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(66,92,839) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(66,92,839) = ( 66 × 92 × 839 ) / 2
LCM(66,92,839) = 5094408 / 2
LCM(66,92,839) = 2547204
