Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 129,657,532 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 129,657,532 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,61,36
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 129564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/129564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 129/59,657/61,532/36 is 1/129564
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 59,61,36 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,61,36) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,61,36) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,61,36) = ( 59 × 61 × 36 ) / 1
LCM(59,61,36) = 129564 / 1
LCM(59,61,36) = 129564
