1,2,3,6,43,86,129,258
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 259,823,258 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 259,823,258 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,72,591
3 | 13, 72, 591 |
13, 24, 197 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 24 x 197 = 184392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/184392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 259/13,823/72,258/591 is 1/184392
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 13,72,591 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,72,591) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(13,72,591) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(13,72,591) = ( 13 × 72 × 591 ) / 3
LCM(13,72,591) = 553176 / 3
LCM(13,72,591) = 184392
