1,373
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 28,71,373 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 28,71,373 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 457,138,182
2 | 457, 138, 182 |
457, 69, 91 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 457 x 69 x 91 = 5739006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5739006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 28/457,71/138,373/182 is 1/5739006
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 457,138,182 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,138,182) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(457,138,182) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(457,138,182) = ( 457 × 138 × 182 ) / 2
LCM(457,138,182) = 11478012 / 2
LCM(457,138,182) = 5739006
