Lets's calculate LCM of 159,804,535
3 | 159, 804, 535 |
53, 268, 535 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 53 x 268 x 535 = 22797420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22797420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 23/159,17/804,839/535 is 1/22797420
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 159,804,535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,804,535) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(159,804,535) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(159,804,535) = ( 159 × 804 × 535 ) / 3
LCM(159,804,535) = 68392260 / 3
LCM(159,804,535) = 22797420
