1,3,103,309
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 386,461,309 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 386,461,309 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,71,358
2 | 68, 71, 358 |
34, 71, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 34 x 71 x 179 = 864212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/864212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 386/68,461/71,309/358 is 1/864212
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 68,71,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,71,358) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(68,71,358) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(68,71,358) = ( 68 × 71 × 358 ) / 2
LCM(68,71,358) = 1728424 / 2
LCM(68,71,358) = 864212
