Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 20,481,402 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 20,481,402 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,21,163
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 160881
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/160881
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 20/47,481/21,402/163 is 1/160881
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 47,21,163 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,21,163) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,21,163) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,21,163) = ( 47 × 21 × 163 ) / 1
LCM(47,21,163) = 160881 / 1
LCM(47,21,163) = 160881
