Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 428,860,559 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 428,860,559 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 440,159,135
3 | 440, 159, 135 |
5 | 440, 53, 45 |
88, 53, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 88 x 53 x 9 = 629640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/629640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 428/440,860/159,559/135 is 1/629640
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 440,159,135 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(440,159,135) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 15
GCF(440,159,135) x common factors =1 x 15 = 15
LCM(440,159,135) = ( 440 × 159 × 135 ) / 15
LCM(440,159,135) = 9444600 / 15
LCM(440,159,135) = 629640
