Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 38,958,822 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 38,958,822 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,47,167
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 635769
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/635769
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 38/81,958/47,822/167 is 2/635769
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 81,47,167 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,47,167) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,47,167) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,47,167) = ( 81 × 47 × 167 ) / 1
LCM(81,47,167) = 635769 / 1
LCM(81,47,167) = 635769
