Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 15,897,804 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 15,897,804 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 179,716,821
179 | 179, 716, 821 |
1, 4, 821 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 179 x 1 x 4 x 821 = 587836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/587836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 15/179,897/716,804/821 is 3/587836
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 179,716,821 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(179,716,821) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 179
GCF(179,716,821) x common factors =1 x 179 = 179
LCM(179,716,821) = ( 179 × 716 × 821 ) / 179
LCM(179,716,821) = 105222644 / 179
LCM(179,716,821) = 587836
