Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 474,740,724 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 474,740,724 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 22,75,497
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 820050
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/820050
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 474/22,740/75,724/497 is 2/820050
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 22,75,497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(22,75,497) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(22,75,497) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(22,75,497) = ( 22 × 75 × 497 ) / 1
LCM(22,75,497) = 820050 / 1
LCM(22,75,497) = 820050
