Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 659,259,168 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 659,259,168 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,41,709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1715071
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1715071
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 659/59,259/41,168/709 is 1/1715071
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 59,41,709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,41,709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,41,709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,41,709) = ( 59 × 41 × 709 ) / 1
LCM(59,41,709) = 1715071 / 1
LCM(59,41,709) = 1715071
