1,3,229,687
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,242,687 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,242,687 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,87,793
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5243316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5243316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/76,242/87,687/793 is 1/5243316
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 76,87,793 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,87,793) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,87,793) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(76,87,793) = ( 76 × 87 × 793 ) / 1
LCM(76,87,793) = 5243316 / 1
LCM(76,87,793) = 5243316
