Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 324,568,502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 324,568,502 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 563,351,443
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 87542559
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/87542559
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 324/563,568/351,502/443 is 2/87542559
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 563,351,443 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(563,351,443) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(563,351,443) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(563,351,443) = ( 563 × 351 × 443 ) / 1
LCM(563,351,443) = 87542559 / 1
LCM(563,351,443) = 87542559
