Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,51,368 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,51,368 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,429,368
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2683824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2683824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/17,51/429,368/368 is 1/2683824
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 17,429,368 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,429,368) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,429,368) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,429,368) = ( 17 × 429 × 368 ) / 1
LCM(17,429,368) = 2683824 / 1
LCM(17,429,368) = 2683824
