We found the factors 513,838,406 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 513,838,406 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 63,16,68
2 | 63, 16, 68 |
2 | 63, 8, 34 |
63, 4, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 63 x 4 x 17 = 17136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 513/63,838/16,406/68 is 1/17136
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 63,16,68 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(63,16,68) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(63,16,68) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(63,16,68) = ( 63 × 16 × 68 ) / 4
LCM(63,16,68) = 68544 / 4
LCM(63,16,68) = 17136
