Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 49,246,514 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 49,246,514 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,23,722
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 282302
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/282302
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 49/17,246/23,514/722 is 1/282302
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 17,23,722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,23,722) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,23,722) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,23,722) = ( 17 × 23 × 722 ) / 1
LCM(17,23,722) = 282302 / 1
LCM(17,23,722) = 282302
