Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 208,239,699 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 208,239,699 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,304,344
2 | 171, 304, 344 |
2 | 171, 152, 172 |
2 | 171, 76, 86 |
19 | 171, 38, 43 |
9, 2, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 19 x 9 x 2 x 43 = 117648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/117648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 208/171,239/304,699/344 is 1/117648
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 171,304,344 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,304,344) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 152
GCF(171,304,344) x common factors =1 x 152 = 152
LCM(171,304,344) = ( 171 × 304 × 344 ) / 152
LCM(171,304,344) = 17882496 / 152
LCM(171,304,344) = 117648
