Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 783,872,859 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 783,872,859 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 882,354,401
2 | 882, 354, 401 |
3 | 441, 177, 401 |
147, 59, 401 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 147 x 59 x 401 = 20867238
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20867238
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 783/882,872/354,859/401 is 1/20867238
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 882,354,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(882,354,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(882,354,401) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(882,354,401) = ( 882 × 354 × 401 ) / 6
LCM(882,354,401) = 125203428 / 6
LCM(882,354,401) = 20867238
