Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 386,116,292 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 386,116,292 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 197,305,901
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 54136585
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/54136585
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 386/197,116/305,292/901 is 2/54136585
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 197,305,901 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(197,305,901) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(197,305,901) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(197,305,901) = ( 197 × 305 × 901 ) / 1
LCM(197,305,901) = 54136585 / 1
LCM(197,305,901) = 54136585
