Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 76,17,255 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 76,17,255 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 251,606,334
2 | 251, 606, 334 |
251, 303, 167 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 303 x 167 = 25401702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/25401702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 76/251,17/606,255/334 is 1/25401702
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 251,606,334 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,606,334) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(251,606,334) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(251,606,334) = ( 251 × 606 × 334 ) / 2
LCM(251,606,334) = 50803404 / 2
LCM(251,606,334) = 25401702
