Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 326,330,780 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 326,330,780 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,17,59
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/74222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 326/74,330/17,780/59 is 2/74222
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 74,17,59 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,17,59) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,17,59) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(74,17,59) = ( 74 × 17 × 59 ) / 1
LCM(74,17,59) = 74222 / 1
LCM(74,17,59) = 74222
