Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 84,459,562 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 84,459,562 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,49,862
2 | 16, 49, 862 |
8, 49, 431 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 49 x 431 = 337904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/337904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 84/16,459/49,562/862 is 1/337904
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 16,49,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,49,862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(16,49,862) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(16,49,862) = ( 16 × 49 × 862 ) / 2
LCM(16,49,862) = 675808 / 2
LCM(16,49,862) = 337904
