Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 260,737,802 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 260,737,802 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,16,575
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 156400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/156400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 260/17,737/16,802/575 is 1/156400
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 17,16,575 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,16,575) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,16,575) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,16,575) = ( 17 × 16 × 575 ) / 1
LCM(17,16,575) = 156400 / 1
LCM(17,16,575) = 156400
