Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 386,160,343 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 386,160,343 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,33,20
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 386/47,160/33,343/20 is 1/31020
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 47,33,20 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,33,20) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,33,20) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,33,20) = ( 47 × 33 × 20 ) / 1
LCM(47,33,20) = 31020 / 1
LCM(47,33,20) = 31020
