We found the factors 855,720,130 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 855,720,130 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,12,166
2 | 51, 12, 166 |
3 | 51, 6, 83 |
17, 2, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 17 x 2 x 83 = 16932
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/16932
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 855/51,720/12,130/166 is 5/16932
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 51,12,166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,12,166) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(51,12,166) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(51,12,166) = ( 51 × 12 × 166 ) / 6
LCM(51,12,166) = 101592 / 6
LCM(51,12,166) = 16932
