Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 472,401,841 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 472,401,841 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 244,655,299
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47786180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47786180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 472/244,401/655,841/299 is 1/47786180
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 244,655,299 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,655,299) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,655,299) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(244,655,299) = ( 244 × 655 × 299 ) / 1
LCM(244,655,299) = 47786180 / 1
LCM(244,655,299) = 47786180
