Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 47,297,526 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 47,297,526 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,41,357
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 541569
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/541569
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/37,297/41,526/357 is 1/541569
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 37,41,357 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,41,357) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,41,357) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,41,357) = ( 37 × 41 × 357 ) / 1
LCM(37,41,357) = 541569 / 1
LCM(37,41,357) = 541569
