Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 78,19,225 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 78,19,225 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,487,952
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12517848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12517848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/27,19/487,225/952 is 1/12517848
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 27,487,952 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,487,952) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,487,952) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(27,487,952) = ( 27 × 487 × 952 ) / 1
LCM(27,487,952) = 12517848 / 1
LCM(27,487,952) = 12517848
