Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 146,162,658 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 146,162,658 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,57,153
3 | 51, 57, 153 |
17 | 17, 19, 51 |
1, 19, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 17 x 1 x 19 x 3 = 2907
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2907
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 146/51,162/57,658/153 is 2/2907
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 51,57,153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,57,153) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 51
GCF(51,57,153) x common factors =3 x 51 = 153
LCM(51,57,153) = ( 51 × 57 × 153 ) / 153
LCM(51,57,153) = 444771 / 153
LCM(51,57,153) = 2907
