∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 66
:1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66
Now, list down the factors of 73
:1,73
Now, list down the factors of 457
:1,457
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,73,457 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,73,457 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,87,500
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2044500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2044500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/47,73/87,457/500 is 1/2044500
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 47,87,500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,87,500) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,87,500) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,87,500) = ( 47 × 87 × 500 ) / 1
LCM(47,87,500) = 2044500 / 1
LCM(47,87,500) = 2044500
