Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 186,406,535 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 186,406,535 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,51,951
3 | 86, 51, 951 |
86, 17, 317 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 86 x 17 x 317 = 1390362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1390362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 186/86,406/51,535/951 is 1/1390362
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 86,51,951 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,51,951) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(86,51,951) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(86,51,951) = ( 86 × 51 × 951 ) / 3
LCM(86,51,951) = 4171086 / 3
LCM(86,51,951) = 1390362
