Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 21,54,566 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 21,54,566 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 333,401,196
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26172468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26172468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/333,54/401,566/196 is 1/26172468
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 333,401,196 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(333,401,196) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(333,401,196) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(333,401,196) = ( 333 × 401 × 196 ) / 1
LCM(333,401,196) = 26172468 / 1
LCM(333,401,196) = 26172468
