Least Common Factor is not a regularly used expression in algebra.

Least Common Multiple of 9, 12, and 20 is 180.
They do not have a common factor.

21 women/ 4 men = 5.25 women / man

12/23 = 52.174 %

9 = 3*3
12=3*4
20=4*5
so the least common factor is 3*3*4*5 = 180

if there are 4 men and 21 women, the women to men ratio is 21 to 4

12/23 = 0.5217 = 52.17%
