Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 32,346,160 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 32,346,160 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,59,695
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3198390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3198390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 32/78,346/59,160/695 is 2/3198390
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 78,59,695 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,59,695) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,59,695) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(78,59,695) = ( 78 × 59 × 695 ) / 1
LCM(78,59,695) = 3198390 / 1
LCM(78,59,695) = 3198390
