Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 781,470,227 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 781,470,227 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,26,40
2 | 53, 26, 40 |
53, 13, 20 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 53 x 13 x 20 = 27560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/27560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 781/53,470/26,227/40 is 1/27560
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 53,26,40 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,26,40) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(53,26,40) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(53,26,40) = ( 53 × 26 × 40 ) / 2
LCM(53,26,40) = 55120 / 2
LCM(53,26,40) = 27560
