So the greatest common factor 161,491,601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,25,535
| 5 | 73, 25, 535 |
| 73, 5, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 73 x 5 x 107 = 195275
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/195275
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 161/73,491/25,601/535 is 1/195275
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 73,25,535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,25,535) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(73,25,535) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(73,25,535) = ( 73 × 25 × 535 ) / 5
LCM(73,25,535) = 976375 / 5
LCM(73,25,535) = 195275
