Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 47,199,940 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 47,199,940 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,97,696
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5333448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5333448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/79,199/97,940/696 is 1/5333448
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 79,97,696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,97,696) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,97,696) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,97,696) = ( 79 × 97 × 696 ) / 1
LCM(79,97,696) = 5333448 / 1
LCM(79,97,696) = 5333448
