Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 152,331,216 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 152,331,216 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,29,286
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 588874
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/588874
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 152/71,331/29,216/286 is 1/588874
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 71,29,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,29,286) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,29,286) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,29,286) = ( 71 × 29 × 286 ) / 1
LCM(71,29,286) = 588874 / 1
LCM(71,29,286) = 588874
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
