Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 89,79,157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 89,79,157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,61,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2911286
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2911286
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 89/98,79/61,157/487 is 1/2911286
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 98,61,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,61,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,61,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(98,61,487) = ( 98 × 61 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(98,61,487) = 2911286 / 1
LCM(98,61,487) = 2911286
