So the greatest common factor 132,872,165 is 1.


Lets's calculate LCM of 20,36,171

2 20, 36, 171
2 10, 18, 171
3 5, 9, 171
3 5, 3, 57
5, 1, 19

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 1 x 19 = 3420

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3420

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 132/20,872/36,165/171 is 1/3420

Least Common Multiple of 20,36,171 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 20,36,171 with GCF Formula

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 20,36,171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(20,36,171) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 36

GCF(20,36,171) x common factors =1 x 36 = 36

LCM(20,36,171) = ( 20 × 36 × 171 ) / 36

LCM(20,36,171) = 123120 / 36

LCM(20,36,171) = 3420
