Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 47,31,207 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 47,31,207 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 836,291,255
3 | 836, 291, 255 |
836, 97, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 836 x 97 x 85 = 20678460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20678460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/836,31/291,207/255 is 1/20678460
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 836,291,255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(836,291,255) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(836,291,255) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(836,291,255) = ( 836 × 291 × 255 ) / 3
LCM(836,291,255) = 62035380 / 3
LCM(836,291,255) = 20678460
