Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 98,491,378 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 98,491,378 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 85,54,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4484430
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4484430
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 98/85,491/54,378/977 is 1/4484430
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 85,54,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,54,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(85,54,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(85,54,977) = ( 85 × 54 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(85,54,977) = 4484430 / 1
LCM(85,54,977) = 4484430
