1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54,81,162
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 13,158,162 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 13,158,162 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 143,223,998
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31825222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31825222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 13/143,158/223,162/998 is 1/31825222
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 143,223,998 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(143,223,998) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(143,223,998) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(143,223,998) = ( 143 × 223 × 998 ) / 1
LCM(143,223,998) = 31825222 / 1
LCM(143,223,998) = 31825222
