Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 196,253,269 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 196,253,269 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 67,53,360
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1278360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1278360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 196/67,253/53,269/360 is 1/1278360
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 67,53,360 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(67,53,360) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(67,53,360) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(67,53,360) = ( 67 × 53 × 360 ) / 1
LCM(67,53,360) = 1278360 / 1
LCM(67,53,360) = 1278360
