Lets's calculate LCM of 949,627,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 443887158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/443887158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/949,26/627,329/746 is 1/443887158
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 949,627,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(949,627,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(949,627,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(949,627,746) = ( 949 × 627 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(949,627,746) = 443887158 / 1
LCM(949,627,746) = 443887158
