Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 409,533,884 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 409,533,884 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,73,37
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 56721
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/56721
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 409/21,533/73,884/37 is 1/56721
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 21,73,37 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,73,37) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,73,37) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(21,73,37) = ( 21 × 73 × 37 ) / 1
LCM(21,73,37) = 56721 / 1
LCM(21,73,37) = 56721
