Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 830,156,496 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 830,156,496 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,97,989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3549521
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3549521
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 830/37,156/97,496/989 is 2/3549521
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 37,97,989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,97,989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,97,989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,97,989) = ( 37 × 97 × 989 ) / 1
LCM(37,97,989) = 3549521 / 1
LCM(37,97,989) = 3549521
