So the greatest common factor 59,299,132 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 159,514,391
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31954866
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31954866
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/159,299/514,132/391 is 1/31954866
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 159,514,391 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,514,391) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,514,391) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,514,391) = ( 159 × 514 × 391 ) / 1
LCM(159,514,391) = 31954866 / 1
LCM(159,514,391) = 31954866
