Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 278,213,959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 278,213,959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,95,629
17 | 17, 95, 629 |
1, 95, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 1 x 95 x 37 = 59755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 278/17,213/95,959/629 is 1/59755
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 17,95,629 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,95,629) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 17
GCF(17,95,629) x common factors =1 x 17 = 17
LCM(17,95,629) = ( 17 × 95 × 629 ) / 17
LCM(17,95,629) = 1015835 / 17
LCM(17,95,629) = 59755
