Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 582,237,226 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 582,237,226 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,21,511
7 | 73, 21, 511 |
73 | 73, 3, 73 |
1, 3, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 73 x 1 x 3 x 1 = 1533
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1533
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 582/73,237/21,226/511 is 1/1533
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 73,21,511 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,21,511) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 511
GCF(73,21,511) x common factors =1 x 511 = 511
LCM(73,21,511) = ( 73 × 21 × 511 ) / 511
LCM(73,21,511) = 783363 / 511
LCM(73,21,511) = 1533
