So the greatest common factor 14,50,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 296,921,187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50979192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/50979192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/296,50/921,731/187 is 1/50979192
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 296,921,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(296,921,187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(296,921,187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(296,921,187) = ( 296 × 921 × 187 ) / 1
LCM(296,921,187) = 50979192 / 1
LCM(296,921,187) = 50979192
