Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 491,160,578 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 491,160,578 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,94,789
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4820790
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4820790
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 491/65,160/94,578/789 is 1/4820790
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 65,94,789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,94,789) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(65,94,789) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(65,94,789) = ( 65 × 94 × 789 ) / 1
LCM(65,94,789) = 4820790 / 1
LCM(65,94,789) = 4820790
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
