Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 314,692,861 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 314,692,861 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,72,168
2 | 14, 72, 168 |
2 | 7, 36, 84 |
2 | 7, 18, 42 |
3 | 7, 9, 21 |
7 | 7, 3, 7 |
1, 3, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 3 x 1 = 504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 314/14,692/72,861/168 is 1/504
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 14,72,168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,72,168) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 168
GCF(14,72,168) x common factors =2 x 168 = 336
LCM(14,72,168) = ( 14 × 72 × 168 ) / 336
LCM(14,72,168) = 169344 / 336
LCM(14,72,168) = 504
