Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 252,761,581 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 252,761,581 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,20,572
2 | 65, 20, 572 |
2 | 65, 10, 286 |
5 | 65, 5, 143 |
13 | 13, 1, 143 |
1, 1, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 13 x 1 x 1 x 11 = 2860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 252/65,761/20,581/572 is 1/2860
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 65,20,572 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,20,572) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 260
GCF(65,20,572) x common factors =1 x 260 = 260
LCM(65,20,572) = ( 65 × 20 × 572 ) / 260
LCM(65,20,572) = 743600 / 260
LCM(65,20,572) = 2860
