Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 16,39,152 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 16,39,152 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,720,929
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39463920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/39463920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 16/59,39/720,152/929 is 1/39463920
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 59,720,929 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,720,929) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,720,929) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,720,929) = ( 59 × 720 × 929 ) / 1
LCM(59,720,929) = 39463920 / 1
LCM(59,720,929) = 39463920
