Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 77,36,678 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 77,36,678 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,109,154
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 285362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/285362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/17,36/109,678/154 is 1/285362
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 17,109,154 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,109,154) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,109,154) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,109,154) = ( 17 × 109 × 154 ) / 1
LCM(17,109,154) = 285362 / 1
LCM(17,109,154) = 285362
