Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 509,217,918 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 509,217,918 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,23,277
23 | 46, 23, 277 |
2, 1, 277 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 23 x 2 x 1 x 277 = 12742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 509/46,217/23,918/277 is 1/12742
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 46,23,277 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,23,277) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 23
GCF(46,23,277) x common factors =1 x 23 = 23
LCM(46,23,277) = ( 46 × 23 × 277 ) / 23
LCM(46,23,277) = 293066 / 23
LCM(46,23,277) = 12742
