Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 16,233,841 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 16,233,841 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 272,346,851
2 | 272, 346, 851 |
136, 173, 851 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 136 x 173 x 851 = 40044656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/40044656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 16/272,233/346,841/851 is 1/40044656
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 272,346,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,346,851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(272,346,851) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(272,346,851) = ( 272 × 346 × 851 ) / 2
LCM(272,346,851) = 80089312 / 2
LCM(272,346,851) = 40044656
