Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 27,681,994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 27,681,994 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,971,373
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 85475188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/85475188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 27/236,681/971,994/373 is 1/85475188
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 236,971,373 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,971,373) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,971,373) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,971,373) = ( 236 × 971 × 373 ) / 1
LCM(236,971,373) = 85475188 / 1
LCM(236,971,373) = 85475188
