Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 203,431,426 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 203,431,426 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 303,521,101
101 | 303, 521, 101 |
3, 521, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 101 x 3 x 521 x 1 = 157863
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157863
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 203/303,431/521,426/101 is 1/157863
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 303,521,101 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(303,521,101) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 101
GCF(303,521,101) x common factors =1 x 101 = 101
LCM(303,521,101) = ( 303 × 521 × 101 ) / 101
LCM(303,521,101) = 15944163 / 101
LCM(303,521,101) = 157863
