Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 551,233,332 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 551,233,332 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,15,23
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 551/28,233/15,332/23 is 1/9660
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 28,15,23 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,15,23) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,15,23) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,15,23) = ( 28 × 15 × 23 ) / 1
LCM(28,15,23) = 9660 / 1
LCM(28,15,23) = 9660
