Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 161,225,617 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 161,225,617 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,45,586
2 | 32, 45, 586 |
16, 45, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 16 x 45 x 293 = 421920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/421920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 161/32,225/45,617/586 is 1/421920
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 32,45,586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,45,586) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(32,45,586) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(32,45,586) = ( 32 × 45 × 586 ) / 2
LCM(32,45,586) = 843840 / 2
LCM(32,45,586) = 421920
