Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 59,754,990 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 59,754,990 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,17,385
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 471240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/471240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/72,754/17,990/385 is 1/471240
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 72,17,385 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,17,385) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,17,385) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,17,385) = ( 72 × 17 × 385 ) / 1
LCM(72,17,385) = 471240 / 1
LCM(72,17,385) = 471240
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
