Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 335,320,429 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 335,320,429 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,43,957
3 | 12, 43, 957 |
4, 43, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 4 x 43 x 319 = 164604
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/164604
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 335/12,320/43,429/957 is 1/164604
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 12,43,957 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,43,957) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(12,43,957) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(12,43,957) = ( 12 × 43 × 957 ) / 3
LCM(12,43,957) = 493812 / 3
LCM(12,43,957) = 164604
