So the greatest common factor 21,57,957 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 582,491,125
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 35720250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/35720250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/582,57/491,957/125 is 3/35720250
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 582,491,125 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(582,491,125) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(582,491,125) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(582,491,125) = ( 582 × 491 × 125 ) / 1
LCM(582,491,125) = 35720250 / 1
LCM(582,491,125) = 35720250
