1,2,4,199,398,796
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 71,473,796 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 71,473,796 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,89,526
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1732118
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1732118
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 71/37,473/89,796/526 is 1/1732118
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 37,89,526 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,89,526) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,89,526) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,89,526) = ( 37 × 89 × 526 ) / 1
LCM(37,89,526) = 1732118 / 1
LCM(37,89,526) = 1732118
