Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 42,469,918 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 42,469,918 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,11,151
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 78067
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/78067
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 42/47,469/11,918/151 is 1/78067
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 47,11,151 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,11,151) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,11,151) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,11,151) = ( 47 × 11 × 151 ) / 1
LCM(47,11,151) = 78067 / 1
LCM(47,11,151) = 78067
