Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 959,299,157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 959,299,157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,11,482
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 397650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/397650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 959/75,299/11,157/482 is 1/397650
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 75,11,482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,11,482) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(75,11,482) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(75,11,482) = ( 75 × 11 × 482 ) / 1
LCM(75,11,482) = 397650 / 1
LCM(75,11,482) = 397650
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
