1,2,3,5,6,10,15,29,30,58,87,145,174,290,435,870
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 68,151,870 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 68,151,870 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,38,980
2 | 59, 38, 980 |
59, 19, 490 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 19 x 490 = 1098580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1098580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 68/59,151/38,870/980 is 1/1098580
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 59,38,980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,38,980) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(59,38,980) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(59,38,980) = ( 59 × 38 × 980 ) / 2
LCM(59,38,980) = 2197160 / 2
LCM(59,38,980) = 1098580
