Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 62,89,462 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 62,89,462 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,73,872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3755704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3755704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 62/59,89/73,462/872 is 1/3755704
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 59,73,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,73,872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,73,872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,73,872) = ( 59 × 73 × 872 ) / 1
LCM(59,73,872) = 3755704 / 1
LCM(59,73,872) = 3755704
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
