Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,805,435 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,805,435 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,17,370
2 | 74, 17, 370 |
37 | 37, 17, 185 |
1, 17, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 1 x 17 x 5 = 6290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/74,805/17,435/370 is 1/6290
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 74,17,370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,17,370) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 74
GCF(74,17,370) x common factors =1 x 74 = 74
LCM(74,17,370) = ( 74 × 17 × 370 ) / 74
LCM(74,17,370) = 465460 / 74
LCM(74,17,370) = 6290
