Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 473,404,471 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 473,404,471 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,12,421
2 | 10, 12, 421 |
5, 6, 421 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 6 x 421 = 25260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/25260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 473/10,404/12,471/421 is 1/25260
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 10,12,421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,12,421) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(10,12,421) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(10,12,421) = ( 10 × 12 × 421 ) / 2
LCM(10,12,421) = 50520 / 2
LCM(10,12,421) = 25260
