Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 725,459,271 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 725,459,271 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 870,420,292
2 | 870, 420, 292 |
2 | 435, 210, 146 |
3 | 435, 105, 73 |
5 | 145, 35, 73 |
29, 7, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 29 x 7 x 73 = 889140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/889140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 725/870,459/420,271/292 is 1/889140
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 870,420,292 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(870,420,292) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 60
GCF(870,420,292) x common factors =2 x 60 = 120
LCM(870,420,292) = ( 870 × 420 × 292 ) / 120
LCM(870,420,292) = 106696800 / 120
LCM(870,420,292) = 889140
