Now, list down the factors of 43
:1,43
Now, list down the factors of 291
:1,3,97,291
Now, list down the factors of 996
:1,2,3,4,6,12,83,166,249,332,498,996
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 43,291,996 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 43,291,996 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,41,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 483677
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/483677
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/47,291/41,996/251 is 1/483677
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 47,41,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,41,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,41,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,41,251) = ( 47 × 41 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(47,41,251) = 483677 / 1
LCM(47,41,251) = 483677
