Lets's calculate LCM of 56,47,71
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 186872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/186872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/56,924/47,947/71 is 1/186872
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 56,47,71 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(56,47,71) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(56,47,71) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(56,47,71) = ( 56 × 47 × 71 ) / 1
LCM(56,47,71) = 186872 / 1
LCM(56,47,71) = 186872
