Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 167,985,352 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 167,985,352 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 120,418,956
2 | 120, 418, 956 |
2 | 60, 209, 478 |
30, 209, 239 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 30 x 209 x 239 = 5994120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5994120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 167/120,985/418,352/956 is 1/5994120
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 120,418,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(120,418,956) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(120,418,956) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(120,418,956) = ( 120 × 418 × 956 ) / 8
LCM(120,418,956) = 47952960 / 8
LCM(120,418,956) = 5994120
