We found the factors 86,17,435 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 86,17,435 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 729,204,186
2 | 729, 204, 186 |
3 | 729, 102, 93 |
243, 34, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 243 x 34 x 31 = 1536732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1536732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/729,17/204,435/186 is 1/1536732
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 729,204,186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(729,204,186) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(729,204,186) x common factors =3 x 6 = 18
LCM(729,204,186) = ( 729 × 204 × 186 ) / 18
LCM(729,204,186) = 27661176 / 18
LCM(729,204,186) = 1536732
