Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 175,483,973 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 175,483,973 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,91,173
13 | 52, 91, 173 |
4, 7, 173 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 4 x 7 x 173 = 62972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/62972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 175/52,483/91,973/173 is 7/62972
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 52,91,173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,91,173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 13
GCF(52,91,173) x common factors =1 x 13 = 13
LCM(52,91,173) = ( 52 × 91 × 173 ) / 13
LCM(52,91,173) = 818636 / 13
LCM(52,91,173) = 62972
