Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 60,255,120 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 60,255,120 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 190,339,697
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44893770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/44893770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/190,255/339,120/697 is 15/44893770
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 190,339,697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(190,339,697) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(190,339,697) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(190,339,697) = ( 190 × 339 × 697 ) / 1
LCM(190,339,697) = 44893770 / 1
LCM(190,339,697) = 44893770
