Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 408,346,842 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 408,346,842 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 92,73,753
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5057148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5057148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 408/92,346/73,842/753 is 2/5057148
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 92,73,753 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(92,73,753) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(92,73,753) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(92,73,753) = ( 92 × 73 × 753 ) / 1
LCM(92,73,753) = 5057148 / 1
LCM(92,73,753) = 5057148
