1,2,5,10,17,25,34,50,85,170,425,850
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,699,850 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,699,850 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,64,257
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/279616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/17,699/64,850/257 is 1/279616
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 17,64,257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,64,257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,64,257) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,64,257) = ( 17 × 64 × 257 ) / 1
LCM(17,64,257) = 279616 / 1
LCM(17,64,257) = 279616
