Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 89,161,159 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 89,161,159 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 526,736,397
2 | 526, 736, 397 |
263, 368, 397 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 263 x 368 x 397 = 76846496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/76846496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 89/526,161/736,159/397 is 1/76846496
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 526,736,397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(526,736,397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(526,736,397) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(526,736,397) = ( 526 × 736 × 397 ) / 2
LCM(526,736,397) = 153692992 / 2
LCM(526,736,397) = 76846496
