Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 73,68,309 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 73,68,309 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,733,151
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1660245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1660245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/15,68/733,309/151 is 1/1660245
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 15,733,151 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,733,151) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,733,151) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,733,151) = ( 15 × 733 × 151 ) / 1
LCM(15,733,151) = 1660245 / 1
LCM(15,733,151) = 1660245
