Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 56,621,484 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 56,621,484 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,59,969
3 | 21, 59, 969 |
7, 59, 323 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 59 x 323 = 400197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/400197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 56/21,621/59,484/969 is 1/400197
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 21,59,969 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,59,969) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(21,59,969) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(21,59,969) = ( 21 × 59 × 969 ) / 3
LCM(21,59,969) = 1200591 / 3
LCM(21,59,969) = 400197
