Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 949,368,182 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 949,368,182 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,29,23
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 949/26,368/29,182/23 is 1/17342
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 26,29,23 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,29,23) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,29,23) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,29,23) = ( 26 × 29 × 23 ) / 1
LCM(26,29,23) = 17342 / 1
LCM(26,29,23) = 17342
