Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 64,84,517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 64,84,517 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 242,431,281
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29308862
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29308862
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 64/242,84/431,517/281 is 1/29308862
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 242,431,281 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,431,281) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,431,281) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(242,431,281) = ( 242 × 431 × 281 ) / 1
LCM(242,431,281) = 29308862 / 1
LCM(242,431,281) = 29308862
