Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 17,567,138 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 17,567,138 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 91,55,12
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 60060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 17/91,567/55,138/12 is 1/60060
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 91,55,12 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(91,55,12) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(91,55,12) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(91,55,12) = ( 91 × 55 × 12 ) / 1
LCM(91,55,12) = 60060 / 1
LCM(91,55,12) = 60060
