Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 471,173,957 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 471,173,957 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 67,11,361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 266057
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/266057
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 471/67,173/11,957/361 is 1/266057
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 67,11,361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(67,11,361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(67,11,361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(67,11,361) = ( 67 × 11 × 361 ) / 1
LCM(67,11,361) = 266057 / 1
LCM(67,11,361) = 266057
