Lets's calculate LCM of 305,119,387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14046165
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/14046165
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 156/305,134/119,212/387 is 2/14046165
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 305,119,387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(305,119,387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(305,119,387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(305,119,387) = ( 305 × 119 × 387 ) / 1
LCM(305,119,387) = 14046165 / 1
LCM(305,119,387) = 14046165
