Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 917,959,799 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 917,959,799 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,21,239
3 | 36, 21, 239 |
12, 7, 239 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 12 x 7 x 239 = 60228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 917/36,959/21,799/239 is 1/60228
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 36,21,239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,21,239) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(36,21,239) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(36,21,239) = ( 36 × 21 × 239 ) / 3
LCM(36,21,239) = 180684 / 3
LCM(36,21,239) = 60228
