Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 69,196,549 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 69,196,549 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,71,371
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 421456
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/421456
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 69/16,196/71,549/371 is 1/421456
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 16,71,371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,71,371) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,71,371) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,71,371) = ( 16 × 71 × 371 ) / 1
LCM(16,71,371) = 421456 / 1
LCM(16,71,371) = 421456
