Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 60,460,196 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 60,460,196 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,31,673
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 542438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/542438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/26,460/31,196/673 is 4/542438
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 26,31,673 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,31,673) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,31,673) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,31,673) = ( 26 × 31 × 673 ) / 1
LCM(26,31,673) = 542438 / 1
LCM(26,31,673) = 542438
