1,991
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 502,477,991 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 502,477,991 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,62,501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 403806
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/403806
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 502/13,477/62,991/501 is 1/403806
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 13,62,501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,62,501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,62,501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,62,501) = ( 13 × 62 × 501 ) / 1
LCM(13,62,501) = 403806 / 1
LCM(13,62,501) = 403806
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
