Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 21,489,317 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 21,489,317 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 82,79,572
2 | 82, 79, 572 |
41, 79, 286 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 41 x 79 x 286 = 1852708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1852708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/82,489/79,317/572 is 1/1852708
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 82,79,572 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(82,79,572) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(82,79,572) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(82,79,572) = ( 82 × 79 × 572 ) / 2
LCM(82,79,572) = 3705416 / 2
LCM(82,79,572) = 1852708
