1,859
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 253,237,859 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 253,237,859 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,16,335
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 101840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/101840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 253/19,237/16,859/335 is 1/101840
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 19,16,335 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,16,335) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,16,335) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,16,335) = ( 19 × 16 × 335 ) / 1
LCM(19,16,335) = 101840 / 1
LCM(19,16,335) = 101840
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
