Lets's calculate LCM of 848,577,317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 155106832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/155106832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 132/848,856/577,254/317 is 2/155106832
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 848,577,317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,577,317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,577,317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(848,577,317) = ( 848 × 577 × 317 ) / 1
LCM(848,577,317) = 155106832 / 1
LCM(848,577,317) = 155106832
