Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 87,149,959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 87,149,959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,62,267
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 380742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/380742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/23,149/62,959/267 is 1/380742
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 23,62,267 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,62,267) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,62,267) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,62,267) = ( 23 × 62 × 267 ) / 1
LCM(23,62,267) = 380742 / 1
LCM(23,62,267) = 380742
