Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 17,473,491 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 17,473,491 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,17,129
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133773
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/133773
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 17/61,473/17,491/129 is 1/133773
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 61,17,129 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,17,129) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,17,129) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,17,129) = ( 61 × 17 × 129 ) / 1
LCM(61,17,129) = 133773 / 1
LCM(61,17,129) = 133773
