Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 109,747,278 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 109,747,278 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,42,598
2 | 53, 42, 598 |
53, 21, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 53 x 21 x 299 = 665574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/665574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 109/53,747/42,278/598 is 1/665574
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 53,42,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,42,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(53,42,598) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(53,42,598) = ( 53 × 42 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(53,42,598) = 1331148 / 2
LCM(53,42,598) = 665574
