Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 23,55,186 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 23,55,186 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 305,887,388
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 104967580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/104967580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 23/305,55/887,186/388 is 1/104967580
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 305,887,388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(305,887,388) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(305,887,388) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(305,887,388) = ( 305 × 887 × 388 ) / 1
LCM(305,887,388) = 104967580 / 1
LCM(305,887,388) = 104967580
