Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 883,988,665 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 883,988,665 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,71,14
2 | 40, 71, 14 |
20, 71, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 20 x 71 x 7 = 19880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 883/40,988/71,665/14 is 1/19880
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 40,71,14 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,71,14) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(40,71,14) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(40,71,14) = ( 40 × 71 × 14 ) / 2
LCM(40,71,14) = 39760 / 2
LCM(40,71,14) = 19880
