Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,98,206 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,98,206 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,367,659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17897122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17897122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/74,98/367,206/659 is 2/17897122
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 74,367,659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,367,659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,367,659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(74,367,659) = ( 74 × 367 × 659 ) / 1
LCM(74,367,659) = 17897122 / 1
LCM(74,367,659) = 17897122
