1,3,9,27,81,243
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 12,861,243 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,861,243 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 572,561,769
11 | 572, 561, 769 |
52, 51, 769 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 52 x 51 x 769 = 22433268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/22433268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/572,861/561,243/769 is 3/22433268
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 572,561,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,561,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 11
GCF(572,561,769) x common factors =1 x 11 = 11
LCM(572,561,769) = ( 572 × 561 × 769 ) / 11
LCM(572,561,769) = 246765948 / 11
LCM(572,561,769) = 22433268
