Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 17,147,643 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 17,147,643 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,17,471
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 344301
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/344301
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 17/43,147/17,643/471 is 1/344301
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 43,17,471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,17,471) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,17,471) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,17,471) = ( 43 × 17 × 471 ) / 1
LCM(43,17,471) = 344301 / 1
LCM(43,17,471) = 344301
