Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,836,985 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,836,985 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 103,990,578
2 | 103, 990, 578 |
103, 495, 289 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 103 x 495 x 289 = 29469330
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29469330
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/103,836/990,985/578 is 1/29469330
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 103,990,578 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(103,990,578) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(103,990,578) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(103,990,578) = ( 103 × 990 × 578 ) / 2
LCM(103,990,578) = 58938660 / 2
LCM(103,990,578) = 29469330
