Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 20,13,280 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 20,13,280 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,956,966
2 | 701, 956, 966 |
701, 478, 483 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 701 x 478 x 483 = 323685348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/323685348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 20/701,13/956,280/966 is 1/323685348
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 701,956,966 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,956,966) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(701,956,966) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(701,956,966) = ( 701 × 956 × 966 ) / 2
LCM(701,956,966) = 647370696 / 2
LCM(701,956,966) = 323685348
