1,2,3,4,6,12,53,106,159,212,318,636
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 99,27,636 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 99,27,636 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,93,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1715478
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1715478
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 99/46,27/93,636/401 is 3/1715478
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 46,93,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,93,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,93,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,93,401) = ( 46 × 93 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(46,93,401) = 1715478 / 1
LCM(46,93,401) = 1715478
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
