1,199
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 56,40,199 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 56,40,199 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 725,337,188
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 45933100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/45933100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 56/725,40/337,199/188 is 1/45933100
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 725,337,188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(725,337,188) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(725,337,188) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(725,337,188) = ( 725 × 337 × 188 ) / 1
LCM(725,337,188) = 45933100 / 1
LCM(725,337,188) = 45933100
