So the greatest common factor 212,517,156 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 474,399,892
| 2 | 474, 399, 892 |
| 3 | 237, 399, 446 |
| 79, 133, 446 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 79 x 133 x 446 = 28116732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28116732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 212/474,517/399,156/892 is 1/28116732
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 474,399,892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,399,892) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(474,399,892) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(474,399,892) = ( 474 × 399 × 892 ) / 6
LCM(474,399,892) = 168700392 / 6
LCM(474,399,892) = 28116732
