Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 16,83,589 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 16,83,589 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,563,378
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10002258
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10002258
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 16/47,83/563,589/378 is 1/10002258
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 47,563,378 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,563,378) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,563,378) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,563,378) = ( 47 × 563 × 378 ) / 1
LCM(47,563,378) = 10002258 / 1
LCM(47,563,378) = 10002258
