Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,889,218 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,889,218 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 211,895,959
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 181102355
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/181102355
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/211,889/895,218/959 is 1/181102355
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 211,895,959 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(211,895,959) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(211,895,959) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(211,895,959) = ( 211 × 895 × 959 ) / 1
LCM(211,895,959) = 181102355 / 1
LCM(211,895,959) = 181102355
