Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 335,257,424 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 335,257,424 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,17,589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 781014
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/781014
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 335/78,257/17,424/589 is 1/781014
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 78,17,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,17,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,17,589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(78,17,589) = ( 78 × 17 × 589 ) / 1
LCM(78,17,589) = 781014 / 1
LCM(78,17,589) = 781014
