Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 262,573,541 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 262,573,541 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,24,516
| 2 | 66, 24, 516 |
| 2 | 33, 12, 258 |
| 3 | 33, 6, 129 |
| 11, 2, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 2 x 43 = 11352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 262/66,573/24,541/516 is 1/11352
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 66,24,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,24,516) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(66,24,516) x common factors =6 x 12 = 72
LCM(66,24,516) = ( 66 × 24 × 516 ) / 72
LCM(66,24,516) = 817344 / 72
LCM(66,24,516) = 11352
