Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 460,509,429 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 460,509,429 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,67,196
2 | 60, 67, 196 |
2 | 30, 67, 98 |
15, 67, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 15 x 67 x 49 = 196980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/196980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 460/60,509/67,429/196 is 1/196980
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 60,67,196 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,67,196) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(60,67,196) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(60,67,196) = ( 60 × 67 × 196 ) / 4
LCM(60,67,196) = 787920 / 4
LCM(60,67,196) = 196980
