Lets's calculate GCF of 4,341,727
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 4
:1,2,4
Now, list down the factors of 341
:1,11,31,341
Now, list down the factors of 727
:1,727
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4,341,727 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4,341,727 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,99,40
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 146520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/146520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4/37,341/99,727/40 is 1/146520
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 37,99,40 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,99,40) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,99,40) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,99,40) = ( 37 × 99 × 40 ) / 1
LCM(37,99,40) = 146520 / 1
LCM(37,99,40) = 146520
