Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 667,240,429 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 667,240,429 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,16,205
2 | 26, 16, 205 |
13, 8, 205 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 8 x 205 = 42640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 667/26,240/16,429/205 is 1/42640
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 26,16,205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,16,205) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(26,16,205) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(26,16,205) = ( 26 × 16 × 205 ) / 2
LCM(26,16,205) = 85280 / 2
LCM(26,16,205) = 42640
